Franco Milazzo’s Summary

Web entrepreneur with more projects than time seeks like-minded folk. I have crazy ideas (which might just work), a strong technical background and a very commercial approach to product design and marketing and I am looking for people who want to take over the world, one web product at a time, regardless of where they are based.

Through E-Sharp Solutions, I am currently working on/have worked on applications for the recruitment, medicare, accountancy, property and professional photography markets.

I specialise in the latest Microsoft technologies including ASP.NET 3.5, SQL Server 2005, ASP.NET Ajax as well as the .NET 3.5 features including Silverlight, WCF and ASP.NET AJAX - plus XP project methodologies, for example Agile/SCRUM both as a practitioner and team member. My industry experience covers law, finance, investment banking, advertising and media as well as local and central government.

Currently writing my autobiography, "Being Italian: Making Positive Discrimination Work For You".
