Background

About Roberto Gemma

In the beginning of my career I worked in consulting, in procurement and supply chain management in several national and aboard projects in important international corporations. I got skills in project management, business process rengineering, information technology and I had the opportunity to manage significant budgets and lead team of many people.After these experiences, I went back to my first idea and with old colleagues from consulting years I decided to invest in a start-up of a new consulting company located in Turin area, focused in Automotive Industry and in SAP Products. Since the beginning the business fast grown in Italy as well as in other countries and just after couple of years we started investigate at opportunities in markets as China and Brasil.As the economic environment was in continuous evolution I started working on business development strategy focusing more on customer requirements in order to provide skills and solutions always updated that could really support in changing times and in forthcoming challenges. While we were involved in SAP ERP rollout projects around the world, in 2013 we opened an office in Brazil and signed a partnership with Altea, an italian System Integrator, placed in the Europe’s 500 Entrepreneurs for Growth list, as one of the most innovative and growing company.In two years my company fully merged with Altea to create a SAP focused Company, named Altea UP, of more than 25mio€ turnover and more than 200 resources and from January 2016 I got the responsibility of Business Development for Altea Federation in order to speed up the company integration process and contributing to the growth of the whole Group. Now I can say that I'm very happy of this progression and first of all I'm grateful I had the chance to meet the right people, as colleagues, customers, partners that allowed me to reach this goal and that continue to give me every day the enthusiasm to look forward for new challenge and opportunities.
