Summary
Marc Sturlese is a technology executive and investor with over 20 years of experience building and scaling global platforms across engineering, product and operations. He led the consolidation and growth of multi-category classifieds at LIFULL Connect, managing platforms that aggregate 300M+ listings across 60+ countries and integrating 15,000+ agencies, after rising through technical roles at Trovit from engineer to CTO. Marc combines hands-on big data and search engineering expertise (Lucene/Solr, Hadoop/Hive) with strategic leadership in M&A integrations, cloud optimization and performance marketing. He pairs an Executive MBA and international study with practical fluency in turning complex technical ecosystems into efficient, revenue-driving platforms. Now a partner at a Barcelona-based angel fund, he actively invests in early-stage tech while applying operator experience to scale startups. Less obvious: he’s equally comfortable diving into low-level search tuning as he is setting product OKRs and managing cross-functional budgets.
