Little Bets
Philosophy & vision
Many people talk about «Work-Life-Balance», as if work and life were two completely separate aspects of life. Others are looking for their unique «Ikigai», the combination of passion, mission, vocation and profession as a motivating force, purpose, reason for living and a way to make ends meet.
With time, I got more and more convinced of these concepts:
- You cannot separate life from work
- There is no single reason for living, no single professionalism
- Any activity, no matter how passionate, loses its attractiveness in the long run
As a result, since 2018 I have started my own experimental path of «little bets», diversifying and balancing my professional life between highly specialized services and outdoor activities.

CREATE
«CREATE» (Customer RElationship And Timespending Evaluation), a Web App, was created as a CRM (Customer Relationship Management) tool, which, in addition to territory management, also allows the monitoring of time spent on multiple activities. «CREATE» was originally developed specifically for the medical-scientific management of a pharmaceutical company, with features such as the territorial management of […]
The «goFARbot»
With the completion of the «goFAR» project and after the transfer of all data to the «CREATE» platform, which allows the entire article database to be synchronised with the company website and e-shop via special APIs (Application Programming Interfaces), it seemed appropriate to carry out a further external check on the consistency of the synchronised data. The «goFARbot», […]
Project «goFAR»
The project «goFAR» is a management innovation initiative, conceived and executed on behalf of a family-run business producing nets (FAR stands for Fabbrica Artigianale di Reti, the company name giving rise to the project’s playful acronym). The project arose from the strong need to optimise and internationalise the web presence of the artisan company (with […]
Hike&Fly post-Lockdown
It was March/April 2021. We were all under house arrest. Many of us innocent. Why? It had been deemed appropriate to ensure social distancing by locking everyone in a cage. Scientifically certainly sound, but of socially questionable. Certainly much suffered by some, less so by others. Many of us practiced heavy alcohol abuse with their […]
Paragliding in Morocco
In late autumn, when in Europe even the last thermals have dried up, in the south of the Mediterranean people start flying. Soaring over the sea, at a few meters from fishermen’s caves, or challenging yourself by turning «land-mine» thermals over the Atlas – there is something for everyone: ground-handling, boaring-soaring, acro, cross…
“Transparency project”
The «Transparency Project» was set up in collaboration with ETOILE s.r.l. (Milan) and concerns transparency in the healthcare sector, i.e. the publication on the Internet of all transfers of value that the healthcare industry makes for the benefit of healthcare professionals (e.g. doctors, nurses and public and private healthcare administrators) health organisations (e.g. scientific societies, […]
ASK (Anakinra Survival Kit)
In 2010/2011, shortly after the merger of Swedish Orphan International with Biovitrum, I suddenly found myself tasked with managing a scientifically astonishing and extraordinary molecule: anakinra, a recombinant human interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (rHuIL-1ra) – a very peculiar, anti-cytochine, biological anti-inflammatory drug. Although at that time it was licensed only for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis […]
«Il Taccuino Blu»
The creation of the «Taccuino blu» («Blue Notebook») was a rather challenging adventure. In 2009, after 2 years of office-based work as a product manager for a multinational pharmaceutical company, I decided to work in an external role again – but after 2 years of desk-work I had developed a mania for the meticulous archiving […]
