Our Team
Max Burgio
Chief Executive Officer
Born from a well-known Sicilian family who’s famous for their Antique Art Galleries in Italy, Max’s business savvy was evident at the age of 16 when he started to work for the family business. By the age of 18, after his first trip to the F1 Grand Prix of Monaco and visiting at the famous Jimmy’s night club, Max had the idea to bring the VIP table service to the chic island of Panarea, scene of international VIPs and fashion models, which was missing a real night club. He then became a successful club owner. There he met a French financier who invited him to invest in a famous club in Paris which led him to take part in its historical nightlife hobnobbing with the celebrities, fashion icons, and royalties in the club. When his family opened an art gallery in NYC, Max realized that it’s nightlife is missing the glamour of Paris. He opened up Float and accomplished something new with the Millennium “jet set”. This opened up several doors for Max and expanded his hospitality connections worldwide. At the same time, Max began his involvement by establishing an international platform to help multiple charities and good cause foundations to heal the world. Max started with Frank De Leo Lotto4Life USA which has since evolved into a project called Play4Life, an international for-profit fundraising powered by IBM Blockchain platform.
Eva Cavalli
fashion ambassador
Eva Cavalli (maiden name Eva Maria Duringer) is the Austrian-born wife of renowned Italian fashion designer Roberto Cavalli. A former model, Eva once served as the Head of Design of the Cavalli fashion brand.
At the end of 1993, Eva’s husband Roberto was considering closing his company but he was dissuaded by his wife’s interest in fashion. In 1994, Eva and Roberto rebuilt the fashion brand from scratch, with Eva as the company’s head of design. The brand introduced a new line of jeans which were more affordable and therefore more popular than their previous collections which were luxury items.
In 2019 the Roberto Cavalli brand was bought by DAMAC Properties of Dubai in the United Arab Emirates, after many decades of it being owned and managed by the Cavalli family alone. Eva is optimistic about the new ownership and confident that it will remain true to the Cavalli look.
