Andrea Foschiatti

I’m a versatile and resourceful designer, valued for deep listening and fertile questions. I support companies in making elegant, useful and sustainable physical products. My career began in a startup, where I learnt to validate assumptions, save resources and be accountable. After 10 years of intense and diverse experience, I bring a rich set of skills and a fertile point of view to the table. I worked with big companies (Arduino, Dierre, Catellani&Smith) and startups (Wiseair, PipeIn, Aliagrid), but also non-profits (UN, Hackability). I understand business's challenges, but current crises urge us not to look only at profit. I look forward to ambitious and courageous entrepreneurs to make products that facilitate sustainable lifestyles. Every now and then I teach with passion and intellectual honesty, as I did at Politecnico di Torino, IED Turin and Domus Academy in Milan. I also mentor startups for Techstars.
