Luca Ferrari is the co-founder and CEO of Bending Spoons, an Italian technology company he co-founded in 2013 that has grown through systematically acquiring and turning around consumer internet brands including Evernote, Vimeo, Eventbrite, and WeTransfer. He is best known for building what he calls 'the perfect operating machine' — a disciplined, execution-focused approach that scales acquired products without relying on luck once product-market fit has been established. Under his leadership, Bending Spoons has reached a reported $20 billion valuation with over $1.3 billion in revenue and is preparing for a US IPO.
“They turned around these effing companies. I mean, Evernote was dead and they re-accelerated the growth of Evernote with a fifth of the employees.”
