  I manage this startup I created with friends during the Covid pandemic. • The landmark product is Fantaculo (www.fantaculo.it), a tech consumer webapp to calculate luck in Italian fantasy football. Using machine learning, Fantaculo also predicts real football players' performances, offering consumers powerful insights to dominate their fantasy leagues. • Since its launch in 2021, Fantaculo has become one of the most popular tools for Italian fantasy football players (reached >500k users in its inaugural year).

2019 PhD to Consulting Conference

• Organising Committee

  • Oct 2018 - Sep 2019

  The PhD to Consulting (PtC) conference is a one day annual event targeted at doctoral and post-doctoral researchers interested in pursuing a career in consulting. • Organised this year conference with other 5 PhD colleagues from different universities in UK. • Raised more than £10'000, coming from conference delegates and sponsor companies. • Invited to the conference speakers coming from top consulting firms in different fields including medicine, science and engineering. • Used the money to cover all the expenses, including for example venue booking and catering.
