Stefano Cipollone is joining as Business Development Manager and will be responsible for presale activities internationally.

Stefano has nearly 30 years’ experience in providing solutions to the financial services industry. He joins Auriga from NCR Corporation where he held senior roles in software R&D, product strategy and presales. Stefano brings significant technological skills into Auriga and has developed several patented self-service banking technologies in areas such as secure authentication, application monitoring and transaction processing.

In his new role within the Auriga sales team, Stefano will be focused on new customer opportunities, the design of technical and commercial offers, and the creation and management of global partnerships.

“We happily welcome Stefano to our team. We are sure that with his great experience he will be able to play a key role in identifying and interpreting the market and customers’ needs and in contributing to the definition of innovative and customer focused solutions and propositions”, says Vincenzo Fiore, CEO.

The appointment of Stefano follows the earlier recruitment of Niccolò Garzelli as its new Senior Vice President, Sales. He joined Auriga in April after holding senior business leadership roles at Diebold Nixdorf for the last ten years.

With offices in Bari, Rome, Milan, London, Paris and Frankfurt, Auriga is developing an exciting international presence. Auriga’s technology is deployed in UK, France, Italy, Portugal, Mexico and Belgium and is developing partnerships in Central America, Australasia, Northern and Sub-Saharan Africa, Central and Southern Europe.

Auriga solutions are deployed on ATMs and other self-service digital banking devices and systems and are founded on a modern cloud computing architecture that improves time to market for new customer services while lowering operational costs and building long-term competitive advantage.
