Phoenix Spark Inc., the U.S. subsidiary of Phoenix Group, has become an Ecosystem Partner of the Transatlantic Innovation Hub (TIH), the international platform of ATLAS (Confindustria), a structured operational bridge between Italy and the U.S., designed to support the internationalization of Italian startups and innovative companies and their entry into the U.S. market. The platform represents the first permanent Italian landing place in New York dedicated to accelerating businesses in the U.S. market—the world’s leading market for innovation and venture capital and home to the second most dynamic startup ecosystem in the world, after Silicon Valley.
Following Houston and San Francisco, Phoenix Spark – international consulting and services hub focused on business growth, innovation, and cross-border development between Europe and the United States – is thus consolidating its presence in the United States by leveraging the spaces at the prestigious TIH headquarters, inaugurated on March 24 in the heart of Manhattan, at 417 Fifth Avenue.
SCOPE AND OPERATIONS OF THE PARTNERSHIP – The partnership gives Phoenix Spark access to the stream of opportunities within the TIH network, providing a key gateway to qualified European companies that are implementing plans and projects to establish a presence in the U.S. Phoenix Spark will also participate in panels and roundtables organized by TIH and will be able to share co-branded promotion projects and visibility within the Hub’s ecosystem.
This offering aligns with Phoenix Spark’s objectives, which, in turn, brings to the table a modular and operational service proposition that concretely addresses all the operational needs of companies (startups, scaleups, and SMEs) seeking to enter and operate in the United States.
Among the service verticals offered there are: Business Operating Services; Financial Ecosystem (Financial Hub); and Professional, IT & GenAI Services in Hybrid Outsourcing.

– development of fundraising campaigns and go-to-market facilitation - Financial Ecosystem (Financial Hub) that facilitates access to banks, venture capital, and alternative financing instruments
- Professional Services in Hybrid Outsourcing (Professional, IT & GenAI Services): technology services and AI-based digital solutions for software development and enterprise automation.
“Phoenix Spark’s entry into the Transatlantic Innovation Hub in New York represents a highly valuable strategic move for us. After establishing a presence in Silicon Valley, Texas, and Florida, we wanted to become operational in the financial, institutional, and international heart of the American East Coast, within an ecosystem capable of truly connecting innovation, businesses, capital, and markets.
The TIH perfectly embodies this vision: not just a networking hub, but a concrete platform for execution and support for startups, scaleups, innovative SMEs, and, more broadly, Italian companies looking to enter and grow in the United States. his is exactly the approach we take at Phoenix Spark: turning strategies and relationships into tangible results, concrete services, and business development.
“Through this partnership, we will bring our ability to support companies in their entry and growth in the U.S. to the TIH network, thanks to an integrated model that combines operational services, access to the American financial ecosystem, business development, and advanced technological expertise in IT, AI, and GenAI,” commented Giulio Fezzi, President of Phoenix Spark.
