Bio
Thomas Fortkord
Paolo is a true leader and an extraordinary personality who motivates a team to perform at its best while always keeping the goals of all areas in mind. I had the privilege to learn from him during our time together developing the market in D/A/CH and BeNeLux and to be able to sustainably bind new customers by means of real added value.

He was one of my best student in a very long University activity ( more than 50 years ). He is an intelligent guy, very serious in his job , and is splendid career is a witness of his activity. I am glad he returned in Italy and surely he will give a high value contribution to industrial success in our country.
