  • the caution amount is now €79, to make volvero even more inclusive and still safe and secure;
  • users can now add a rating for their bookings, so security and transparency are increased.

All good reasons to download the volvero app right away!

THE MOST RECENT UPDATES

As we intensify our activities in Malta, we thought you might fancy having a look at our presentation for the Pitch Black event at the Start Up Festival, with our CEO Marco Filippi on stage. The competition was very unique: no slides, just us, our voices and our ideas!

More recently, Marco was invited to an event hosted by Plenitude, the ENI company devoted to renewable energy – so right up our street! 🌱 This intrapreneurship initiative in Milan brought together 20 talents from Plenitude who received a motivational training from Marco about factors to consider when starting a business, challenges to overcome, and how to trigger innovative thinking.

Our COO Kayode was in Brussels for the European Angel Investment Summit, which brought together EU policy makers, investors, and a few selected startups to discuss ways to fuel Europe’s growth. Volvero was present engaging with current partners and future collaborators 🚀.
