  • Tuduu — Tuduu.it: Revolutionizing the Internationalization of Italian Food E-commerceTuduu.it is an innovative internationalization-as-a-service platform designed to empower small and medium-sized Italian food producers to overcome the digital and linguistic barriers that limit their global reach. By providing a scalable AI-powered ecosystem, Tuduuenables these producers to seamlessly translate, enrich, and showcase their product catalogs and recipes in over 17 languages, unlocking new export opportunities across Europe and beyond.The Challenge The Italian agri-food sector is a global leader, generating over €523 billion in turnover and employing 3.6 million people. However, only 15% of this turnover currently derives from exports, and just 20% of Italian food companies have an e-commerce presence — often limited to Italian language only. This poor digitalization and language gap create significant competitive disadvantages for many small and medium producers eager to reach international customers.Tuduu’s Solution Tuduu.it addresses these challenges through a comprehensive, AI-driven digital platform designed as an internationalization-as-a-service (IaaS) model for Made in Italy food e-commerce. The key pillars of Tuduu’s solution include:AI-powered catalog and recipe translation: Automatic, scalable translation of product catalogs, recipes, and user-generated content (UGC) videos into 17 languages, including automated dubbing of video content, enabling producers to speak directly to diverse international markets.Personalized user experience: Dynamic nutrition filters allow users to explore products and recipes tailored to their dietary profiles (e.g., vegan, gluten-free, allergies), with AI algorithms that automatically determine macro- and micronutrients, and assess nutritional compatibility with specific dietary restrictions.Seamless marketplace integration: Producers set up or maintain their own e-commerce sites and access Tuduu’s ecosystem by installing a simple plugin or API feed. This approach preserves producers’ autonomy while enabling them to benefit from Tuduu’s unique international visibility and user engagement.Recipe-driven commerce: Tuduu innovates by combining product discovery with rich recipe content, allowing consumers to explore authentic Italian culinary experiences and directly purchase ingredients through integrated shopping lists and seamless checkout flows.SEO and marketing optimization: Tuduu acts as a multilingual media showcase optimized for both Google search and YouTube video discovery, leveraging AI-generated content and influencer marketing networks to boost brand awareness and export sales.Market Opportunity 54,000+ Italian food companies generate approximately €67 billion in export value annually.The total addressable market (TAM) of the Italian agri-food sector is €523 billion, with the serviceable available market (SAM) focused on the digitally mature segment estimated at €12 billion.Tuduu’s projected serviceable obtainable market (SOM) aims to capture €11.4 million in transactions within five years, with a target of more than 800 retailers and 90 million euros in transaction volume.Business Model Tuduu operates primarily on a performance-based affiliation fee of 10% on sales, coupled with a SaaS subscription starting at €99/month for access to advanced platform features. Custom projects and media services (including influencer campaigns) are offered to support brand promotion and growth.The Tuduu Ecosystem and Team The platform is built on three key scalable AI models:Product Model: Analyzes and translates product data with nutritional profiling and cross-contamination detection.Recipe Model: Automates recipe nutrient calculation and compatibility with specific dietary needs.Nutrition Model: Generates personalized nutrition plans and profiles.The Tuduu team combines expertise in food tech, software development, UX design, marketing, and business development, driven by a shared mission to support Italian food producers’ digital transformation and international expansion.Sustainability and Impact Tuduu embraces sustainability not only as a goal but as a driver of growth. By promoting healthier eating habits through nutritionist-guided recipes and improving access to authentic local products, Tuduu aligns with several United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The platform also supports small producers by facilitating their entry into global markets via digital channels, thereby enhancing social and economic sustainability in local communities.Side Project: Tuduu Nutrition Expanding the core technology, Tuduu has developed a complementary SaaS platform for nutritionists called Tuduu Nutrition. This platform enables rapid creation, analysis, and digitization of personalized nutrition plans, integrated into a mobile app for patient compliance and monitoring.Key features of Tuduu Nutrition include:Generation of tailored nutrition profiles and plans based on validated dietary guidelines.Weekly meal planning with integrated recipes from Tuduu’s extensive database.Shared and collaborative shopping lists that automatically sync with partner retailers for easy purchasing.SaaS pricing based on a monthly subscription (€29/month) plus a fee per managed patient (€2.5/month).Tuduu Nutrition leverages the same AI technology and data models as Tuduu.it, creating synergy between food e-commerce and health-oriented nutrition planning.Financial Outlook and Fundraising Tuduu is currently in a growth and fundraising phase, targeting €1,000,000 in capital with investment tickets starting from €5,000. The company projects rapid scaling with increasing revenues from marketplace transactions, media services, and SaaS subscriptions, aiming for over €11 million in revenues by 2029 and expanding its brand network substantially.Summary Tuduu.it is poised to transform the Italian food export landscape by bridging the gap between small producers and international consumers through advanced AI-driven digital tools, an engaging marketplace experience, and a strong commitment to sustainability and nutrition. Alongside its sister platform Tuduu Nutrition, it creates a comprehensive ecosystem that connects producers, consumers, and health professionals in a unique, scalable way.

Annuncio il ritiro dall'attività agonistica nel gennaio 2011, rimango comunque nel mondo del ciclismo come Sport Manager del team UCI Continental D'Angelo & Antenucci-Nippo. Nel 2012 e 2013 ricopro la figura di Team Manager nel Team Nippo-De Rosa vincendo due Giri del Giappone, il giro di Malesia e conquistando oltre 40 gare in due anni, portando così il Team ad essere una delle formazioni di maggiore interesse nel mondo Asiatico. Parallelamente dal 2011 inizio una nuova esperienza personale come co-founder & events manager di "Bike Division Tour Operator" specializzato esclusivamente in viaggi alle più importanti Granfondo nazionali ed internazionali e in viaggi per Cicloturisti con oltre 40 destinazioni a livello mondiale.

  • Tuduu — Tuduu.it: Revolutionizing the Internationalization of Italian Food E-commerceTuduu.it is an innovative internationalization-as-a-service platform designed to empower small and medium-sized Italian food producers to overcome the digital and linguistic barriers that limit their global reach. By providing a scalable AI-powered ecosystem, Tuduuenables these producers to seamlessly translate, enrich, and showcase their product catalogs and recipes in over 17 languages, unlocking new export opportunities across Europe and beyond.The Challenge The Italian agri-food sector is a global leader, generating over €523 billion in turnover and employing 3.6 million people. However, only 15% of this turnover currently derives from exports, and just 20% of Italian food companies have an e-commerce presence — often limited to Italian language only. This poor digitalization and language gap create significant competitive disadvantages for many small and medium producers eager to reach international customers.Tuduu’s Solution Tuduu.it addresses these challenges through a comprehensive, AI-driven digital platform designed as an internationalization-as-a-service (IaaS) model for Made in Italy food e-commerce. The key pillars of Tuduu’s solution include:AI-powered catalog and recipe translation: Automatic, scalable translation of product catalogs, recipes, and user-generated content (UGC) videos into 17 languages, including automated dubbing of video content, enabling producers to speak directly to diverse international markets.Personalized user experience: Dynamic nutrition filters allow users to explore products and recipes tailored to their dietary profiles (e.g., vegan, gluten-free, allergies), with AI algorithms that automatically determine macro- and micronutrients, and assess nutritional compatibility with specific dietary restrictions.Seamless marketplace integration: Producers set up or maintain their own e-commerce sites and access Tuduu’s ecosystem by installing a simple plugin or API feed. This approach preserves producers’ autonomy while enabling them to benefit from Tuduu’s unique international visibility and user engagement.Recipe-driven commerce: Tuduu innovates by combining product discovery with rich recipe content, allowing consumers to explore authentic Italian culinary experiences and directly purchase ingredients through integrated shopping lists and seamless checkout flows.SEO and marketing optimization: Tuduu acts as a multilingual media showcase optimized for both Google search and YouTube video discovery, leveraging AI-generated content and influencer marketing networks to boost brand awareness and export sales.Market Opportunity 54,000+ Italian food companies generate approximately €67 billion in export value annually.The total addressable market (TAM) of the Italian agri-food sector is €523 billion, with the serviceable available market (SAM) focused on the digitally mature segment estimated at €12 billion.Tuduu’s projected serviceable obtainable market (SOM) aims to capture €11.4 million in transactions within five years, with a target of more than 800 retailers and 90 million euros in transaction volume.Business Model Tuduu operates primarily on a performance-based affiliation fee of 10% on sales, coupled with a SaaS subscription starting at €99/month for access to advanced platform features. Custom projects and media services (including influencer campaigns) are offered to support brand promotion and growth.The Tuduu Ecosystem and Team The platform is built on three key scalable AI models:Product Model: Analyzes and translates product data with nutritional profiling and cross-contamination detection.Recipe Model: Automates recipe nutrient calculation and compatibility with specific dietary needs.Nutrition Model: Generates personalized nutrition plans and profiles.The Tuduu team combines expertise in food tech, software development, UX design, marketing, and business development, driven by a shared mission to support Italian food producers’ digital transformation and international expansion.Sustainability and Impact Tuduu embraces sustainability not only as a goal but as a driver of growth. By promoting healthier eating habits through nutritionist-guided recipes and improving access to authentic local products, Tuduu aligns with several United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The platform also supports small producers by facilitating their entry into global markets via digital channels, thereby enhancing social and economic sustainability in local communities.Side Project: Tuduu Nutrition Expanding the core technology, Tuduu has developed a complementary SaaS platform for nutritionists called Tuduu Nutrition. This platform enables rapid creation, analysis, and digitization of personalized nutrition plans, integrated into a mobile app for patient compliance and monitoring.Key features of Tuduu Nutrition include:Generation of tailored nutrition profiles and plans based on validated dietary guidelines.Weekly meal planning with integrated recipes from Tuduu’s extensive database.Shared and collaborative shopping lists that automatically sync with partner retailers for easy purchasing.SaaS pricing based on a monthly subscription (€29/month) plus a fee per managed patient (€2.5/month).Tuduu Nutrition leverages the same AI technology and data models as Tuduu.it, creating synergy between food e-commerce and health-oriented nutrition planning.Financial Outlook and Fundraising Tuduu is currently in a growth and fundraising phase, targeting €1,000,000 in capital with investment tickets starting from €5,000. The company projects rapid scaling with increasing revenues from marketplace transactions, media services, and SaaS subscriptions, aiming for over €11 million in revenues by 2029 and expanding its brand network substantially.Summary Tuduu.it is poised to transform the Italian food export landscape by bridging the gap between small producers and international consumers through advanced AI-driven digital tools, an engaging marketplace experience, and a strong commitment to sustainability and nutrition. Alongside its sister platform Tuduu Nutrition, it creates a comprehensive ecosystem that connects producers, consumers, and health professionals in a unique, scalable way.
