I have served in the material technology, design and furniture, packaging and pharma-chemical industry for +25 years and I am currently leading Silvateam’s Biocircular Ecotan Project for tanning leathers sustainably.
Educated in Italy, the UK and the USA, I am experienced in devising global strategies to develop new business opportunities, turn around critical markets and drive sustainable change. In all positions I have covered during my international career, sustainability and innovation have always been pivotal to the generation of continuous growth and the creation of a strong corporate identity.
All China Leather Exhibition (ACLE) is the first and only international leather fair in China. ACLE is known as the premier event for international companies seeking opportunities in China’s huge markets – the focus of the global leather industry. Since its inception back in 1998, ACLE has welcomed hundreds of thousands of professional buyers from the main tannery and leather goods / footwear manufacturing provinces of Mainland China.
ACLE targets the Chinese tanning (upstream) sectors which are sourcing raw hides and skins, semi-finished leather, leather chemicals and leather machineries to manufacture into finished leather to be used in the domestic footwear, leather goods and automotive upholstery sectors.
