Bio
Ruggero Civitarese
Graziano is brilliant, with a volcanic mind. Always oriented to the best solution. Smart as only a Sicilian can be and independent as well. It has been a great pleasure for me to work with him.
Fabio Sgaragli
Graziano is a full rounded professional: solid, trustworthy, knowledgeable and hard-working. A very good and skilled manager, demanding but fair on his people. In his role as Programme Manager he was able to pull off tough negotiations and win complex bids, project managing large projects involving several partners from many different European countries. Always very cool and calm, with a subtle sense of humour, Graziano is a pleasure to work with. I'd recommend him with no hesitation to everyone, please feel free to drop me a note if you'd like more details.
