Welcome to my site...
Let me introduce the real me...
- Hello, please to meet you. My name is Lorenzo Delpani and I am an Italian born in Brescia, Italy. However, I see myself as a GLOBAL CITIZEN and a modern renaissance man. I speak 5 languages fluently having lived and worked in 8 countries for 5 Top Global corporations operating in the consumer goods business.
- I have explored and/or visited all continents for work and pleasure many times adding up over two million miles, that is over 40 times the earth circumference. Traveling, exploring the world and getting to know new cultures and people is my primary hobby. In fact, I hope to visit other planets too before I die (come on Elon Musk, we count on you...).
- Accomplished CEO and world class marketing wizard, I love creating brands and products. I am a serial innovator and have lead the development and successful launch of several blockbuster innovations in multiple consumer categories. My innovations got over 15 Product of the year awards. Was recognized as Marketer of the Year in Beauty (for mass market) by WWD in December 2015 and also recognised as one of the Most influential CEO in marketing, media and tech by Adweek.
- For me creating innovation and great products is a form of art. Innovation is the expression or application of human creative skills, knowledge and imagination. As such it is a form of art, albeit more rational and functional. If you do it well, you see it everywhere on shelves or online and people watch it, use it and like it. It gives me great satisfaction and a dopamine kick.
- My character and style is energetic, assertive, demanding, direct, radically honest and at times intense. I tend to have a polarizing effect.
- I am proud of my professional accomplishments that came through constant innovation, personal sacrifice and huge effort. As a person I believe I am good and definitely on the light side of the Force. Or at least I want to be. But I am no Jedi, but rather a gladiator.
- Currently I am a Board advisor, investor and a start up entrepreneur but I am still searching for the holy grail i.e. the right opportunity to make a dent in the universe.
- Last, but not least, I am a father of two wonderful kids and a married man.
