Since Talent Garden was born in 2011, the team has grown from 1 to more than 76 people: 60 local founders and their teams + 16 others who have helped the tag network grow.

S P E C I A L A C K N O W L E D G M E N TEnrico Gasperini – who will always be in our hearts.

I nnovation and entrepreneurship

aren’t easy, but I’ve always believed

that only people who manage to

transform their passion into a job can really

succeed; because every minute of their work

brings them happiness.

Makerland sells artifacts and products created by makers. It’s a place where anyone can buy beautifully designed objects and/or customize them whilst acquiring the tools and knowledge to become a ‘maker’ himself and produce his own ideas.
