Andrea Ferrante

Chief Financial Officer @Verdore Group

Biography

A modern CFO with over 25 years of experience, gained mainly in the FMCG, marketing and loyalty services, aerospace, tourism (...but not in space), and finally, wine sectors.

I have a degree in Economics (specializing in export marketing strategies) and an MBA. Yes, it was an evening and weekend program: I know what sacrifice means.

I have worked in both structured multinational companies and entrepreneurial startups with constantly evolving cultures.

I co-founded four startups: I failed twice, in one case I sold my shares and left the fourth project in the capable hands of great visionaries.

Passionate about future studies, I have been hosting a weekly podcast since 2019 and have published several books on the future of technology.
