Work Experience Highlights

I have spent the past 19 years deeply immersed in the world of technology, digital transformation, and the vibrant Silicon Valley ecosystem, where I have forged strong connections.


My journey began as a partner at Linden Lab from 2006 to 2010, where I spearheaded major projects to establish brand presence on the Second Life platform for prestigious names like Telecom Italia, Tim, Ducati, Ferrari, and Bayer. Additionally, I was involved in the development of the “Nebraska'' stealth project (Secondlife for enterprise), closely collaborating with the Linden Lab leadership team in San Francisco.


The departure of Linden Lab’s founder, Philip Rosedale, in 2011 marked the beginning of my venture into various projects focused on innovation, technology, and digital transformation. My role entailed coordinating international teams and providing support to the upper management of myriad international companies and organizations, all while serving as a consultant for technological innovation, and operating through Qbit Technologies, a US company I founded in 2014, specialized in providing emerging and immersive technologies solutions for enterprises. 


The rooster of clients I worked for includes distinguished entities such as the SME Group, Unical, PwC, Polyglass, BCD Travel, Danieli Automation and Unifrutti Group in Italy, as well as Armasuisse (Swiss Government)  and Dufry in Switzerland, Grundfos and iLab in Denmark, Dubai Future Academy, and the NATO Innovation Hub in Norfolk, Virginia. Additionally, I played a pivotal role in the international postal ecosystem, working closely with the UN’s Universal Postal Union, Postal Innovation Platform, USPS in the USA, and Swiss Post in Switzerland.


Beginning in 2012, I have had the privilege of collaborating with the Institute For The Future in Palo Alto as a Research Affiliate. This esteemed institution is a leading research center focusing on innovation and future studies in the USA, where I contributed to projects exploring emerging technologies and the future of the Internet. With the IFTF, I have had the opportunity to work with retail giants and global brands such as VF, Philip Morris IQOS, SwissPost, USPS, Armasuisse, and NATO.


In my capacity as a project leader for the Unifrutti Group from 2019 to 2021, I managed the Group’s Artificial Intelligence adoption project. This involved coordinating an international team alongside Google-X in Mountain View and establishing a partnership with Google for the group.


Throughout the last 15 years, I have also been involved in training senior management from various companies in the realm of innovation and digital transformation. I am currently a corporate trainer for Cegos Group and IFOA in Italy. 


My speaking engagements include keynote addresses at renowned international events like Kinnernet, DLD, IGDS, and TED. Additionally, I have conducted training sessions  with prestigious institutions such as the Ca Foscari University of Venice, Dubai Future Academy, Thnk Amsterdam, Scuola dei Capi Intesa, and Confindustria.


In December 2024 I have started the H-FARM Futures Lab, an innovative initiative combining advanced future foresight methodologies and powerful AI models to support strategic thinking, strategy design, and scenario planning. The lab offers a variety of products and services, including future foresight courses, corporate training, scenario planning, emerging technology forecasting, and "prototype the future" services. 


Since November 2024 I am an advisor of Gigaverse.com
