Strategic Leadership & Institutional Development – Institute Itech

- Strategic partnership appointment
- Milan, Italy – with international scope
- An NDA must be signed

This is a founding partnership opportunity. The selected individual will enter Institute Itech as a core institutional stakeholder, contributing to the strategic direction, financial solidity, and long-term development of the organization.

About Institute Itech:

Institute Itech is a private research, development and technological innovation institute based in Italy with an international vision. It was created to transform scientific knowledge, advanced engineering and emerging technologies into concrete solutions for the environment, health, data intelligence, artificial intelligence, urban systems and technological infrastructure. The company is built on a multidisciplinary vision structured around six pillars: Education, Technology, Social, Nature, Research and Urban. Through these areas, Institute Itech develops high-impact projects capable of improving quality of life, making cities more sustainable and creating new models of scientific, industrial and social progress.

Its flagship projects include Memoria™ (AI-based neuroimaging and cognitive data intelligence), Oxyleaf™ (environmental monitoring and air quality technologies), Terra™ (advanced soil and ecological remediation systems), Polaris™ (strategic data infrastructure and positioning systems), Balloon™ (high-altitude sensing and urban climate platforms), and Biocity™ (integrated biourban planning and smart city ecosystems).

Institute Itech is now entering a pivotal phase of institutional consolidation and international expansion, with active operations across Europe, the Middle East, and Asia. At this stage, the organization is selectively opening its governance structure to a small number of high-conviction individuals who share its vision and wish to participate in its growth from a position of meaningful influence.

About the Opportunity:

Institute Itech is extending an exclusive invitation to a Co-Founder & Board Member — an individual of proven professional standing, financial solidity, and strategic vision who wishes to become an integral part of the Institute's institutional foundation.

The Founding Investor & Board Member will hold a formal seat within Institute Itech's governance structure, contributing strategic guidance, institutional credibility, and network leverage alongside financial commitment.

The ideal candidate is a senior professional, entrepreneur, or institutional figure with a strong track record,



an established network relevant to Institute Itech's areas of activity, and a genuine interest in the intersection of technology, sustainability, and international innovation.
