FoolFarm operates as a startup factory focused on artificial intelligence, using proprietary industrial startup‑creation processes and a fast‑prototyping platform called FoolCore to spin prototypes into companies. It develops startups from its R&D labs in Milan and Lecce and via tech transfer through its Foolers village program, present at the universities of Lecce, Sassari and Sapienza di Roma. The group centers each startup on international industrial patents and also offers corporate open innovation under FoolFarm Solutions. Since inception it has created over €15 million of assets and launched five startups (Voiceme, IIO, Fragmentalis, AidaMask and Snaproof), all with IP protection. FoolFarm plans 20 new investments in AI startups under its 2024–2028 industrial plan and targets break‑even by 2026 with an eventual IPO. It has announced a Q4 launch of Xphere, a startup to build a new generative AI model for enterprises.
