IT Eng. Gianluca Landi is a professional sport trader since 2007 and the first genuine Italian trainer in Betting Exchange and sports trading. Founder of the registered trademark Betting Exchange® and the website bettingexchange.net, he has made a decisive contribution to the birth, spread and development of sports trading in Italy through websites, books, conferences, television appearances and over a decade of professional training.
His mission is to transfer the expertise acquired in traditional financial markets to the world of Betting Exchange, making it accessible to anyone who wants to learn a new profession based on method, discipline and statistical analysis.
Academic Background and Financial Experience
Gianluca Landi holds a Degree in Mechanical Engineering with a management specialisation from the University of Pisa. Mathematics, statistics and vector calculus are the technical and analytical foundations that characterise his approach to sports trading.
After graduating, he built a solid career in the financial sector, holding positions of responsibility at companies such as Millennium SIM spa and Capitaltrading spa, where he was involved in software and product development, training and management of the proprietary trading desk. These experiences gave him a deep understanding of the psychological dynamics and methodologies that underpin professional trading.
In 2007 he stumbled upon Betting Exchange by chance and, drawing on his quantitative and financial expertise, began developing original methodologies grounded in scientific and mathematical evidence. The analogies with financial markets were the key to bringing a professional approach to this sector in Italy.
