Education and early career

In 1983, Marzocco graduated from the University of Padova with a civil engineering diploma and started working as an engineer in the construction sector in Italy.[2] In 1988, he was kidnapped for two weeks by the Calabria-based mafia 'Ndrangheta.[3] Claudio Marzocco managed to escape the kidnappers after 15 days of abduction. “A week later, my whole family moved to Monaco where we found security for both ourselves and our business”, he said during an interview with French magazine L’Express.[4]

Groupe Marzocco

Groupe Marzocco was founded in the 1960s by Domenico Marzocco, father of Claudio Marzocco.[5] The same year Claudio Marzocco was kidnapped, after moving to Monaco, he established Groupe Marzocco in Monaco,[6] which was soon oriented as a real estate development company specializing in luxury buildings.[7] Groupe Marzocco, which is fully owned and managed by members of the Marzocco family, is now considered one of Monaco's leading real-estate development companies.[8]

Claudio Marzocco describes his mission as "implementing the technological, environmental and esthetically pleasing formulas that will contribute to the ever growing influence of Monaco".[9] He has been the company's Chief Executive Officer since 20007. His brothers Luca Marzocco, Claudio’s sons Daniele and Niccolò, as well as his nephew Domenico Della Bella are also board members.[10]
