    Full Analysis

    Turin-based Supplyme built procurement-and-supplier-management SaaS for Italian SMBs. After raising €8M from Italian angel networks (Club degli Investitori) and Turin family offices, the company failed to achieve product-market fit in the conservative Italian SMB segment. After two years of declining ARR, Supplyme shut down operations in 2023 and returned remaining capital. A representative case for the dozens of small Italian SaaS startups that failed in 2022-2023.
