My name is Davide Davi (pronounced Dah-vee-day Dah-vee) and I am a global-minded executive with significant experience in B2B sales. Having lived in 3 continents and speaking fluently 5 languages, I thrive in international environments and create long-lasting relationships with people around the world. My technical education has allowed me to succeed in companies with highly engineered products. Over the years, I took on roles with increasing responsibility, from managing a small sales team up to the management of a continental organization with 250 people and full P&L responsibility. I am an optimist by nature and manage a business keeping my feet on the ground. I think strategically and can quickly adapt to any new environment or situation. I deeply care for customers but always give strong consideration to profitability, not just revenue growth. On a personal level, I am a proud father of two girls and have a passion for downhill ski racing. I love this sport because of the many friends I made, the international environment that ski racing provides me, the closeness to nature, and the chance it gives me to express my competitive nature. My life motto is “Per aspera ad astra,” a Latin phrase that stands for “Through hardship to the stars.” I am convinced that great achievements are possible if we are willing to take on difficult challenges.
