Not someday, but now.
Life is meant to be lived, not postponed.
So why not give it a try?
Even if it’s just for 90 days… you never know what might follow.
It might even grow into something bigger than you ever imagined.
Join the Makers Club
The Makersclub is an intimate community of entrepreneurs, creators and true Novanta lovers at heart: people who share the same spark and the same dream of what this place can become.
Many of them first arrived in the valley as guests, often inspiring entrepreneurs with visions and talents of their own. And somewhere between our long-table dinners and late-night conversations, we noticed how our ideas emerged, visions grew, and a shared desire to help shape Novanta’s future took root. From that spirit, the Makersclub was born.
Today, its members inspire us, challenge us and help us create new experiences for our hilltop village. They dream with us, build with us and keep the magic of our Gello alive.
We’re inviting you to become a part of this adventure.
Will you shape the next Novanta chapter with us?
How it works
It takes a community to restore a village.
Becoming a Maker is simple, transparent, and meaningful. You contribute a €10,000 loan to help us restore forgotten places and bring Castello di Gello back to life. Depending on the flavor you pick, you receive club benefits, return in kind as unforgettable stays in Tuscany and financial return. After 3 or 5 years, your full investment is returned. Guaranteed. No complexity: just clarity, and a shared dream.
