Hey, I'm Marco.
I'm a designer, product builder, and lifelong dreamer from Italy.
By day, I'm the Chief Product and Technology Officer at an edtech company. By night I'm chasing my dream of becoming a solopreneur.
For as long as I can remember, I've loved building things. Whether it was tinkering with code or sketching out the next “big idea”, I've always been drawn to the magic of turning thoughts into something real. But somewhere along the way, I realized my true dream: to create, build, and grow my own projects—on my own terms.
Experience
Since 2023, I have been the Chief Product & Technology Officer at Testbusters, a growth-stage company in the edtech sector.
Previously, I served as Head of Product at Talent Garden, Europe's leading provider of digital education, where I focused on designing an enhanced experience for our students.
I spent five years as Chief Technology Officer at Vitesy, a startup specializing in hardware devices for air purification.
In August 2023, I co-founded Babytales, a company that creates personalized children's books powered by AI.
In 2015, I co-founded a coworking space in my hometown, Talent Garden Pordenone.
In 2017, I developed Ammesso.it, an app designed to help students prepare for university entrance exams. It quickly became the most popular app among Italian students and was later acquired by Testbusters.
Since 2020, I have been pursuing my passion for teaching. I have taught for the Master's in Service Design & Innovation Management organized by MandS and for the Master's in Product Management by Product Heroes.
Travel
Whenever possible, I travel the world with Annalisa, my life partner, and Isabel, my daughter.
