I am a technology leader, solution architect, and senior project manager with 18+ years delivering complex EU/ESA R&D programs—from concept and funding through exploitation, IP strategy, and technology transfer. I combine deep technical expertise in digital design, SoC/multi-core microarchitecture, and scenario-based methodologies with business exploitation, IPR management (patents, licensing), and market strategy across 5G/6G, terrestrial, and non-terrestrial (NTN) communications. As CEO & Founder of Trimsignal, I lead technology innovation, go-to-market execution, and IP creation/licensing. In 2022, I served as Senior Business Exploitation Manager in a flagship 5G/6G program, aligning technical roadmaps with market needs and partner ecosystems. My contributions span ESA initiatives and multiple EU projects, consistently moving results beyond deliverables into adoption, partnerships, and measurable impact. I operate at the intersection of engineering rigor and business outcomes—turning research assets into protected, transferable, and investable technologies.…I am a technology leader, solution architect, and senior project manager with 18+ years delivering complex EU/ESA R&D programs—from concept and funding through exploitation, IP strategy, and technology transfer.
