Venture timeline

A selected path through projects I helped create, launch, or develop as founder, co-creator, or strategic consultant.

1997-2000 · Sports Media

CalcioCampano

CalcioCampano belongs to the phase in which editorial experimentation, local media culture, and football passion: a pioneering football-focused project connected to Campania, local identity, and the early possibilities of digital publishing thanks to the partnership of Radio Punto Zero and Tele Capri Sport.

2008 · AI Consulting

EYRA / Horus

In 2008, I worked as a consultant for EYRA Ltd in Switzerland. Supported the pre-launch of Horus, a wearable AI device for the visually impaired. Startup acquired by 5 LIONS HOLDING (USA) in 2019.

Horus was an AI-powered wearable assistant for blind and visually impaired people that used deep learning–based computer vision on an embedded Nvidia Tegra platform to interpret the environment in real time, continuously scanning the surroundings and turning visual information into verbal messages.

2015-2026 · Data Intelligence

CoffeeBI

Founded in 2015, CoffeeBI has been a reference point for the coffee industry for almost a decade, combining market intelligence, data analysis, and strategic insight.

Over the years, it has supported roasters, equipment manufacturers, chains, and independent players by helping them understand market trends, consumer behaviour, and competitive dynamics in the coffee sector.

2026- up to this date · Travel Venture

Teekonda

A travel concept developed around experiences, storytelling, and a distinctive positioning within the premium small-group travel space.

Startup work as editorial architecture.

For me, building a startup has never meant only launching a business. It has meant giving shape to a point of view, a market intuition, a language, and a system of value that people can recognize and trust.
