Stefano Sarli

Hi there! I'm Stefano, a husband and father of two wonderful kids!

Currently, I live in Dubai with my family and I am a mergers and acquisitions professional at EY. Prior to joining EY, I specialised in mergers and acquisitions, divestitures and business development initiatives mainly within corporates across a variety of industries, including consumer and industrial goods and building materials.
I graduated from Bocconi University before starting my career in investment banking in Italy. I have also worked for Holcim, Japan Tobacco International and Ariston Group in Italy, Switzerland and Hong Kong.
I am passionate about startups and I am also a mentor at the Abu Dhabi SME Hub providing support to aspiring and existing entrepreneurs on fundraising, planning and strategy.
