Biography

Gino si focalizza sulle società profit e non-profit operanti nel settore delle scienze della vita. Rappresenta questa clientela in una vasta gamma di operazioni commerciali e presta assistenza sugli aspetti normativi e regolamentari complessi di tale settore che impattano sulle operazioni e amministrazione.

Tramite la rappresentazione di uno dei più grandi centri di ricerca privati e non-profit al mondo, Gino ha sviluppato una particolare e significativa esperienza nella strutturazione di gruppi d’imprese a scopo filantropico. Gino è particolarmente abile nella traduzione delle finalità filantropiche e operative in una struttura flessibile, utilizzando sia enti for-profit che vari tipi di enti non-profit, per conseguire le finalità del gruppo in modo efficiente e efficace. 

Gino si occupa anche di operazioni di M&A, joint venture e investimenti cross-border e altre operazioni internazionali, prevalentemente tra l’Italia e gli USA. La sua esperienza include aver operato nella sede di Milano di un altro studio legale internazionale, dove ha affiancato clienti statunitensi e europei in ristrutturazioni di debito, joint venture e project finance.
