Based in Florence, Italy, Liquinvex S.R.L. is a financial technology company aiming to make fine wine a more accessible investment asset class. Founded in 2021 by Fabrizio Anichini, Riccardo Tripodi (CEO), and Francesco Meli (COO), the firm targets both new and experienced investors. CEO Riccardo Tripodi's background includes roles in wine marketing and management, complemented by a Master's degree in the field, directly aligning his expertise with the company's mission. The company was officially registered in December 2022.
Liquinvex operates a mobile application that allows users to invest in fine wine without the complexities of physical ownership and storage. The platform's primary value proposition is democratizing access to the fine wine market, an area traditionally dominated by high-net-worth individuals. It addresses key barriers to entry by eliminating profit commissions and minimum portfolio thresholds. Through the app, clients can buy individual bottles or participate in curated collections via a crowdfunding model. The platform provides market data to help users track the value of their holdings within their digital cellar. Liquinvex handles the storage, certification, and insurance of the physical wine bottles, which are kept in a specialized vault. Users can choose to redeem their physical bottles at any time.
The company generates revenue through the sale of wine on its platform. A key feature is the peer-to-peer marketplace, which allows users to sell their previously purchased bottles to other users on the platform. As a participant in the Hubble program, backed by Fondazione CR Firenze and Nana Bianca, Liquinvex has gained visibility and support within the Italian startup ecosystem. The company has also secured investment from IKIGAI.
