Inter lost the Italian Super Cup final to city rivals AC Milan in Saudi Arabia on Monday after throwing away a 2-0 lead.
Inter took the lead in the 16th minute when Lautaro Martínez showed fantastic control on a long ball over the top. His volley was parried by Venezia keeper Filip Stankovic but Matteo Darmian turned in the rebound.
Venezia almost levelled in the 74th but Gianluca Busio curled a fine attempt off the base of the far post and Inter held on for their sixth straight away victory without conceding a goal.
Venezia remained 19th in the 20-team standings, five points from safety.
