Accelerating Founders. Building Products That Matter.

AI, IoT & Robotics, Cybersecurity, Space, and More: Startups I’ve Partnered With Recently.

Over 250 startups supported in the past two years — from pitch clarity to product definition. In deep tech, the real struggle isn’t the technology. It’s making it relevant, usable, adopted. That’s where I come in: bridging emerging tech with human needs — where value, traction, and real impact begin.

20 Years of Driving Innovation in Corporates from ABB to NTT.

Defining the Right Innovation Model, Bringing It to Life with Design Thinking, Prototyping, and Scalable Products.

On the verge of Italian Innovation.

SPATIAL COMPUTING

My first AR concept, created as a student, earned a place in the Apple Design Project and brought me to California. Later, as a partner at Joinpad, I focused on industrial AR, which led to spatial computing projects for NTT Disruption in San Francisco.

I currently support the Copenhagen Institute of Interaction Design -aka CIID- and advise Metavethics, shaping ethical frameworks for metaverses in Cambridge, UK.

Today, as part of an Apple Dev team with MMN, I design cutting-edge immersive experiences, focusing on Vision Pro.
