About / Chi Siamo
There’s an old saying in the island of Elba that when people try to sell, promote or promise something, you should divide it by half and take away ten. With that said, we believe in a modest business model which is based on what we have achieved, and what we can do. We want to amaze you during our first meeting and keep our performance above and beyond throughout the entire process.
We’re business consultants with a broad knowledge of how to establish Swedish brands on the Italian market, and how to bring the best of Italy to Sweden.
Eric and Claudio’s dream is to Combine Italian excellences and know how with swedish efficiency and reliability to realize the added value that is often dispersed due to the inability to exploit and fully understand the strengths (and even weaknesses) of these two worlds so different, but so close thanks to the team of Italia-Svezia.
The work is carried out with professionalism, dynamism, efficiency, passion and humility regardless of the sector of reference.
We decide to collaborate only with companies with whom we see the opportunity to create permanent, serious and lasting relationships.
Eric was born in Italy and has spent his life between Elba, Milan and Stockholm and has always considered himself a Swede in Italy and an Italian when he is in Sweden.
He has a long curriculum from working with international companies helping them establish business opportunities and grow within the Mediterranean area. His main industry competence lies within ICT (Smart City and Fintech), Energy & Environment, Automotive, Food & Beverage and Governmental affairs.
Eric founded Italia-Svezia in 2019 after having spent the last 5 years working for Business Sweden in Milan.
Returned permanently to Stockholm he decided to give shape, together with his brother Claudio, to Italia-svezia: a reality that support Swedish companies approaching the Italian market and vice versa.
These are two countries that differ markedly in terms of the products and services in which they excel and in which Italia-svezia.com can act as an accelerator, a point of reference, being able to count on a network of collaborators located in Sweden but with deep cultural and linguistic knowledge of the Italian market.
At the same time, the experience gained by Eric at Business Sweden allows the same company to be an ally to develop your business in the reference markets.
Claudio, as his brother Eric, was born in Italy but he has spent big part of his life in sweden.
Claudio is an authentic volcano. With his enthusiasm, passion and love for his homeland he is decisive in promoting Italian companies in Sweden.
His proven commercial skills are also decisive in helping Swedish companies in the Italian market, regardless of the sector.
Thanks to his proven skills in the world of sales, his tenacity and his ability to quickly understand customers' needs, Claudio is extremely important within the company. His studies and experiences in various Swedish and Scandinavian business contexts allow Claudio to understand and support clients and to be the spokesperson for their needs.
He is characterized by an Italian temperament and grew up in Scandinavian working environments; all this has formed a person who knows how to move perfectly in all work contexts and can behave in the most appropriate way in every situation.
His ability to adapt, his dynamism and his preparation make Claudio a fundamental operative arm within the team of Italia-Svezia
