Marco Vanetti is a founder and CEO with 11+ years of hands-on software engineering experience and a PhD in Artificial Intelligence, currently leading Forge S.r.l. where he drives R&D at the intersection of AI and e-commerce automation. He built one of Italy’s early CBIR-based shopping services (Drezzy), architecting cross-platform frontends and ML-driven backends that combine visual/textual feature extraction with Solr indexing. Comfortable across the stack, Marco ships cloud-native systems (AWS/Azure/GCP), RESTful backends, modern frontends, and native mobile apps, while also owning product, UX, and go-to-market thinking. His open-source and DevOps contributions—such as introducing monorepo management and CI/CD automation to the Leapp cloud-access tooling—showcase pragmatic infrastructure and release engineering skills. Colleagues describe him as a technical founder who translates research-grade AI into production-ready services and business models. Based in Lombardy, he pairs academic rigor with entrepreneurial grit to turn complex image-and-text problems into usable e-commerce products.
