The goal of our project was to assist Crafted in its diversification efforts by assessing its expansion potential and opportunities for partnerships with local sustainable startups. To meet this goal, we worked with Crafted Italy to study their business model and observe their current project with Zero Farms, a vertical farming company. We observed the current project with Zero Farms, This is Frank, to research future products they can use to expand within the same industry in Venice. Finally, the team researched other cities that have similar attributes as Venice for Crafted to expand internationally.
