Hello, my name is

Giulio Casagrande

International Business

About me

I am an enthusiastic Italian chap based in Hong Kong, with a rich experience of over 6 years in International Business Development in China.

I Help Business Growth

I am currently employed by Sengi Express, a Poste Italiane company leader in the creation and management of logistics solutions for Chinese e-commerce companies active on the Italian market, based in Hong Kong, as International Business Development Manager.

My strong interest in the Chinese culture and my wish to deepen the knowledge of this important and fascinating country,
led me to earn a bachelor’s degree in “Language, Culture and Society of Asia and Mediterranean Africa – China Curriculum” at Ca’ Foscari University of Venice (Italy).
The ten-year sporting career in rugby, collective university studies, several trips abroad, even in countries not really for tourists, a family of mixed cultural origins (from Greece to Turkey, from Sicily to Veneto) have developed in me a good ability to adapt to multi-ethnic and multicultural environments and to work (and suffer) in a group.
Apart from the ability to direct a rugby team on the pitch, I am able to organize my work independently, I consider myself reliable, I meet deadlines, and I am able to work towards goals.
