Gamindo raises 1.4 million euro seed round to expand AI training platform

Gamindo, a startup that transforms corporate training into interactive experiences, announced a seed round of 1.4 million euro on 2026-09-22. The funding was led by Club degli Investitori, Vento, Doorway, Zanichelli Venture and other strategic investors, alongside angel investors including the four co-founders of Bending Spoons, Luca Maestri, Riccardo Zacconi, Claudio Erba, Alessio Artuffo and Duccio Vitali. The round follows a previous 500 thousand euro investment in 2021 from Luiss Alumni 4 Growth. The capital will be used to hire talent in product and sales, with openings for backend developer, frontend developer, founding account executive, instructional designer and sales development representative.

Gamindo also launched a new vertical focused on responsible AI use in the workplace, responding to the European AI Act requirements. According to a London School of Economics study, AI‑trained employees are twice as productive and save 11 hours per week, while 68% of workers have not received AI training in the past year. "Buying a Copilot or Claude licence is not enough to increase productivity: we must teach people how to use these tools concretely in their work," said CPO Matteo Albrizio. The new vertical begins with an AI skills assessment, builds interactive use‑case‑driven paths and measures adoption over time.

Gamindo’s platform lets any company create measurable learning experiences without technical expertise, currently serving more than 50 clients including Prada, L’Oréal Italia and Aon. "We invested because Gamindo solves a problem we know well: corporate training should become a competitive advantage," said Club degli Investitori partners Gian Piero Pepino and Federico Mussetto. "Our bet is that designing interactive training will soon be as easy as preparing a presentation," added Enrico Poli, director of Zanichelli Venture.
