Matteo Franceschetti has always been obsessed with performance. Athletic performance, business performance, and now sleep performance. He was a competitive ski racer in Italy, played tennis and raced cars on the European stage—Matteo has always been focused on winning, and on winning in record time. That drive to succeed propelled him from sports podiums to the top tier of the international legal world and to start two clean-tech companies on two continents, all before age 30. Not surprisingly, sleepless nights were a way of life. It was Matteo’s quest for more restorative sleep that led him to quit his previous life and launch Eight Sleep, a New York-based company dedicated to fuelling human potential through optimal sleep, and to turning the bed into a seamless health platform for improved health, performance, and longevity. * Connect with Marc
