Pelion in Milan

Pelion in Milan event was designed by Rancilio Cube SICAF to provide its investors with direct, high-value engagement with General Partners from leading global venture capital funds.

In line with our mission to connect Italian capital with international innovation, this initiative brought together investors and prospects for a refined breakfast in the heart of Milan.

The session offered a rare opportunity to build direct relationships with U.S. fund managers, while discovering Pelion Venture Partners’ vision, their strategic investment approach, and the energy of Utah’s fast-growing tech ecosystem—all in an elegant, conversational setting designed to inspire and connect.

At the center of the conversation was Blake Modersitzki, Managing Partner at Pelion Venture Partners. With a wealth of experience in venture capital, software, and corporate development, Blake shared his perspective on identifying high-potential startups, navigating underserved markets, and scaling innovation globally.

The discussion was moderated by Inès Makula, host of the acclaimed Made IT Podcast, one of Italy’s leading platforms for entrepreneurship stories. Her dynamic interview style brought out key insights into Blake’s professional journey and Pelion’s strategic approach to early-stage investing.

This event offered a rare occasion for our community to connect directly with one of the most respected names in U.S. venture capital, and to gain insight into how global innovation trends intersect with local investment strategies.
