I graduated in architecture at the University Ca 'Foscari of Venice in 1978. During the studies I founded a publishing group.

After that, in 1983, I founded the first media center in Italy: Medianetwork.

In 1993 I became the second largest shareholder of CIA plc, a company listed on the London Stock Exchange, connetting it with Medianetwork, and becoming CIA Medianetwork.

Then in 1995 I created Virgilio, the first Internet portal in Italy.

In 1999 I founded "Onetone", a private investment society operating in Internet startups and investing in different companies.

From 2002 to 2006 I was nominated Country Manager for Italy by Sir Sorrell of WPP Group.
