About Me

I’m Giacomo Veraldi, an executive leader, strategic advisor, and entrepreneur with a passion for building brands, scaling businesses, and leading organizations through transformation.

For over a decade, I’ve helped companies in the U.S. and Europe navigate growth, enter new markets, and redefine their value in competitive industries.
From launching iconic brands to building high-performing teams, my career has been defined by one core principle: leadership that drives lasting impact.

Today, I work with visionary organizations to accelerate growth, streamline operations, and shape bold strategic futures. Whether advising leadership teams, serving on advisory boards, or speaking at international events, I bring clarity, direction, and action to every engagement.

I believe in a leadership style that blends strategic rigor with cultural intelligence.
Markets are dynamic, but fundamentals remain constant: trust, vision, execution.

Through every project, I focus on:

  • Building organizations that move faster and smarter

  • Creating brands that resonate deeply with their audiences

  • Leading transformations with a hands-on, collaborative approach

Above all, I believe that leadership is not just about achieving results, it is about shaping organizations capable of thriving long into the future.
