corpopresentazione

I am a third year PhD student in Management, Finance and Law for Business at Carlo Cattaneo University - LIUC. I am graduated at Cattolica University in Financial Markets and Institutions with outstanding academic degrees in 2011 and I have a  five year working experience in KPMG as an auditor for the financial services sector.

During PhD studies, my research interests are in the field of family business, innovation and open innovation. I am involved in several research activities, such as “Family Up research project” (a research project who aims to investigate how fifteen young family members graduated at LIUC University, with managerial roles in their family businesses, have contributed to the development of their family firm). I have partecipated as a presenter in several conference such as: 

- SIDREA, September, 2016;

- EURAM, June, 2017;

- R&D Management,  July, 2017;

- CINET, September 2017.

Moreover, I am involved even in some extracurricular activities such as “Amaplast project”, a partnership between Liuc University and Amaplast for the analysis of the key financial ratios of the associated companies (roundly 145 SMEs) and trend analysis; and also teaching assistance and tutorships for undergraduate students.
