The Team
Roberto Castelnovo
I have a University degree in Computer Science from Milan University
I have worked almost thirty years in the area of laboratory information management and built a large experience in managing complex sales and services organizations to provide solutions at international level. I had the opportunity to work for several years in multi-cultural and global environments, spending a large portion of my time travelling throughout Europe, Middle East, Africa, Asia and United States. During the majority of my professional career I have been dealing with complex environments, partnering with product managers, marketing team, R&D and quality at global level.
I have been responsible for the implementation of the project management methodology in the services team I was the European Director. The team was formed by more than 50 consultants and outsourcing partners. The methodology was based on the standards of the Project Management Institute. I have covered the role of European Sales Director of the forensic Business Unit delivering more than 100M$ revenues to the company I have worked for.
I had continuous interactions with the Senior Management of the company both at European and global level, providing information about the financial and operational performance of the Business Units I have been responsible for.
In 2013, we founded the consulting firm NL42 to provide specialized services dedicated to paperless projects, specifically focused in the areas of operations, quality assurance and quality control.
In 2016, NL42 has acquired the rights of the International Event Paperless Lab Academy which takes place yearly in different European locations. For more information www.paperlesslabacademy.com.
Isabel Muñoz-Willery Ph.D.
I have a Ph.D. in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at Spanish National Research Council (CSIC) in Madrid and a Master in Molecular Biology at Pierre et Marie Curie University in Paris.
I initially started my professional career at PerkinElmer as application specialist of the DNA solutions. When the life science division became Applied Biosystems (now a division of ThermoFisher Scientific), I have progressed through a series of promotions as leader of multinational technical teams and as partner of European and Global Business Directors. My primary objectives have always been to provide the most adequate support to the business and to the customers. When the company decided to focus on providing turnkey solutions of rapid DNA identification to the most regulated industries like Pharma, Forensic and Food, I built an international technical teams (+ 20 persons over EMEA countries), design new services in alignment with customers´ market requirements (laboratory workflow automation, GLP process validation, IS017025 accreditation) and collaborate closely with the corporate R&D and product development teams in providing adequate solutions to the market.
When, together with Roberto Castelnovo we decided to found NL42 we were looking for combining our technical and managerial knowledges and expertizes to support customers in their laboratory processes.
Within the Paperless Lab Academy organization, I am personally taking care of the sponsors and media relationships, marketing and logistics. For more information www.paperlesslabacademy.com.
Giulia Mussi
I have a degree in Marketing and International Management, which I got in Milan in 2008.
I started my career in marketing in RS Components, a multinational company that supplies industrial products, electronic components and test and measurement equipment. At RS Components I was part of the European marketing team, in the role of Head of Marketing Europe assistant. After 6 years in the company, I decided to broaden my skills and explore the world of sales; I moved to the Netherlands and took a job as account manager at Pieterman, a training and coaching company based in Breda, NL, and operating at International level.
After Pieterman, I continued my experience in accounting at Infinity Global, a premier provider of branded packaging for luxury brands. In my role, I was responsible for a big Italian client in fashion.
After a few time I felt it was the moment to combine the skills and knowledge I had acquired in sales and marketing: hence, I moved back to Milan, where I studied to get a master in Digital Marketing.
The master gave me the chance to collaborate with some agencies as a freelancer and opened me the path to a digital marketing-oriented career. Soon, I decided to start my own business. Together with two other colleagues I collaborated with, I founded Impronta Digitale, a digital marketing agency based in Milan.
In my role at Impronta Digitale, I support customers in finding the right digital marketing strategy that fits their objectives and, through digital tools and activities, I help them achieve their goals.
Since 2018, I collaborate with NL42 in all related digital marketing projects – planning, execution and supervision – supporting NL42 and the Paperless Lab Academy® initiatives.
I also provides support in the logistics and quality control for the event editions management in any of their formats, live and virtual.
