At TIA, supported by a professional and diverse team, he oversees airport operations, facility management and infrastructure development, with a key focus on stakeholder management and passenger experience.
Prior to returning to Europe to take on Director General / Accountable Manager roles at EASA-certified aerodromes, Piervittorio was on staff at IATA, as its worldwide manager for CNS/ATM consulting initiatives. In this role, he had the opportunity to oversee project implementations in South and Central America, Africa, Asia and the Middle East. During his tenure at the Landrum & Brown office in Chicago, he was part of its technical consulting team, with projects ranging from capex programs to airport privatizations to facility planning.
An Italian native, Mr. Farabbi completed a post-graduate degree in Aerospace Engineering at Politecnico di Milano. In addition, he attended the Master in Aeronautical Science at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, in Daytona, Florida.
