Christian Marinaro, founder and Chief Operating Officer of iVolution Organic Whole Foods Inc. a Canadian startup operating in the rapidly growing Plant Based food industry, joined the International program “Chamber mentoring for international growth”, led in Montreal by the ICCC, as Mentor. 

“The mentoring project is an extremely interesting initiative for both us mentors and Italian companies that explore the possibilities of expanding their business abroad. During this journey we have been able to identify the key points required to efficiently explore the territory, the competitors and create detailed action plans. Moreover, the support of professionals at the Italian Chamber of Commerce both in Montreal and in Italy added fundamental skills. ” 

Christian has over 15 years of experience in international business development working for SMEs. His specialization in industrial automation has been a great fit for the companies he mentored during this program. 

“Being part of this project gave me the opportunity to grow professionally thanks to the work done with the mentees and thanks to the relationships created with the other mentors and the staff of the Italian Chamber of Commerce in Canada, always ready & willing to support every request. 

The ICCC would like to thank Christian Marinaro for taking part in this important project and helping the Italian companies RF GRU ENGINEERING and BEA IMPIANTI in their internationalization process, through his knowledge!
