Silvio Scaglia is one of the most popular and richest Entrepreneur who was born on October 14, 1958 in Lucerne, Canton of Lucerne, Switzerland.

After graduating in 1983 with a degree in Electronic Engineering from the Polytechnic University of Turin, Scaglia began working at Aeritalia Spazio, where for a time he worked on the Teleret satellite project in partnership with NASA and Martin Marietta. Later, in response to a job advertisement, he applied to Arthur Andersen and Andersen Consulting, where he worked for three years, first as a programmer and then as a consultant. On the verge of pursuing a master’s degree in the U.S., Scaglia instead accepted a position at McKinsey & Co., where he worked under Gianfilippo Cuneo for three years, ultimately following him to Bain & Company. There, among other roles, Scaglia was a consultant for Piaggio. At the start of the 1990s, he became logistics manager for Piaggio’s Spanish subsidiary, working alongside Giovanni Agnelli. Subsequently, he became director of Piaggio’s foreign licensing partners, and founded Piaggio’s first industrial base in China in 1994 in Foshan with Agnelli.

In 1994, Omnitel Pronto Italia obtained a mobile telephone license that allowed it to compete with Telecom Italia Mobile.
