Michele Zonca
Software Engineer, entrepreneur, and Investor in Lainate, Milano, Italy
I'm a software developer, entrepreneur, and caffeine-fueled nerd with two decades of experience.
After several years working as a software developer, system administrator, and security lead in Milan, Italy, I co-founded my first startup, Mashape Inc., in 2009, based in San Francisco, CA.
In 2014, I became the CTO of TOK.tv, which was later acquired by Minerva Networks as their innovation team.
In 2018, I joined Reiser Srl, a software agency, as a co-owner. The following year, I founded Quisque, a startup focused on Smart Cities.
Most recently, in 2024, I co-founded The Liquid Factory, a startup studio dedicated to building and scaling innovative ventures.
I hold an MSc in Computer Science (summa cum laude, earned while working) from the University of Milan-Bicocca.
