The founder
Nicholas Perpiglia
Nicholas graduated in Business and Management from the University of Sussex with First Class Honours and began his career at Sony’s European headquarters.
As Pan-European Business Controller he supported decision-making in the Video & Sound division across 30 sales companies: P&L reporting to Sony Corporation in Tokyo, margin and commercial investment analysis, currency impact. As Pan-European Area Business Manager he then ran portable audio for the whole of Europe: €28m in annual net sales, a team of 10 product managers, and Walkman’s rise to No.1 brand in Europe for portable music players, ahead of Apple’s iPod.
In 2020 he decided to try his luck and founded Perpi. Since then he has worked with companies in media, blockchain gaming, property management and tailoring, often taking a direct role in running them.
