About Orlando Merone

Regional manager experienced in growth and marketing, partnerships and sales, business and market development for fintech companies. EMBA, Executive MBA 2021.

I have recently joined the Bitpanda team as Country Manager, Italy. Bitpanda is the leading European neobroker on a mission to democratise the complex world of investing. Founded in Vienna in 2014, Bitpanda is profitable and has already reached over 3M users in Europe.

I previously led business development and partnerships to drive Revolut retail growth in Italy and across Southern Europe (Spain, Portugal, Croatia, Slovenia, Greece, Malta and Cyprus) with full P&L and ROI responsibility. Revolut is the fastest growing and one of the most valued british fintech scale up as is the only banking alternative designed for a global lifestyle with more than 15 million customers.

As an Entrepreneur in 2014, I had the amazing opportunity to found SOLO, a virtual POS. I also led the retail product and growth of a pioneer italian neobank. Before joining Revolut, I led the partnerships across the Italian and DACH markets of Circle, a Boston-based company. Today, Circle is harnessing stablecoins and public blockchain technology to power payments and commerce worldwide.
