I started my professional experience with Enitecnologie, the Corporate R&D Company of ENI Group, the national Oil & Gas Company, in the Strategic Planning & Development Department. During that time I was involved in the Strategy definition and implementation process at corporate level, developing simulation models to analyse the long term evolution of the energy markets.

After a brief experience in management consulting, I later joined Aeroporto G. Marconi di Bologna in January 2000, as Analysis & Planning Manager. My main responsibilities included strategic planning, business development and benchmarking.
In 2002 I became Planning & Control Director, adding responsibilities for business planning, budgeting and cost control, M&A projects, process quality and strategic control of subsidiaries.

With the aim at aligning my function to the new challenges of our business in 2011 I became Strategy and CPM Director, being responsible for strategy design and implementation and for monitoring corporate performance and in charge of the economic regulation process, which includes charges and tariffs scheme definition and negotiation with the airlines and the regulator.

In 2013 I became Managing Director and in July 2015 CEO of Aeroporto G. Marconi di Bologna. In 2015 I led Aeroporto G. Marconi di Bologna to a successful landing at the Italian Stock Exchange “Borsa Italiana”, through an IPO that allowed the opening of the majority of the Company’s shareholding to private investors.
