Manifesto

Startups thrive in the open, where knowledge flows freely and transparency fuels progress.

We believe that a stronger ecosystem is built on visibility, collaboration and shared knowledge.

C14 is an open and growing database of Italian startups, created to discover, compare and connect.

Free and community-driven, it’s not just a product but a shared resource—one that expands with every contribution, empowering those who dare to build.

Better data means better decisions. A more connected ecosystem sparks new opportunities. And innovation, at its core, is never a solo journey.

C14 belongs to the community. As long as there are startups to discover, our work continues.

Join us, contribute and let’s shape the future of startups—together.

Designed and launched by Federico Kratter Thaler in early 2025
