The winners
Pick Eat is the startup project that won the SFS Extratime – Almaviva competition!
The idea, conceived during the Go To Silicon Valley Study Tour 2020, was developed by a team of young individuals sharing a single goal: revolutionizing the food & beverage sector.
How? By reducing delivery wait times for customers and providing a more efficient service. The fan experience remains intact while increasing the operator’s revenues and fan satisfaction. All of this is within reach through a smartphone app that seamlessly integrates with events, matches, or festivals.
THE CHALLENGE
The startup competition of this seventh edition of the SFS has officially come to an end!
Despite the numerous applications received, only eight startups were able to participate in the pitch competition. The challenge took place on November 19 at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome, in the Training Room, in front of a qualified jury that selected the winner.
The selected startups — six Italian and two international — presented innovative solutions for the Football Industry. Operating in strategic and foundational sectors for the SFS, each project was carefully evaluated.
