Q&A

UK questions.

[ 01 ]

Are you based in London?

+

No. Base is Milan. On-site in London monthly, remote weekly. Half the current book is UK and EU.

[ 02 ]

How does UK invoicing work?

+

Invoiced in GBP or EUR from an Italian VAT-registered entity. Reverse charge for UK B2B. No VAT surprises.

[ 03 ]

Do you cover UK employment law and HR?

+

Design of the operating model, yes. UK-specific HR advice is done with a partner employment lawyer. I run the seat, not the legal function.

[ 04 ]

Series A to Series C in the UK. Right fit?

+

Yes. UK SaaS, marketplaces, DTC and online gaming are the sweet spot. Post-Seed too early, growth stage to pre-IPO is the range.
