Claudio Bazzichelli
Co-Founder and Chief Operating Officer
claudio.b@recoup.com
Claudio Bazzichelli—a jet pilot—is quite literally a high-flier. He was the first
to see the value in Recoup’s approach and helped develop the concept. A Cornell-trained
mechanical and aerospace engineer, he earned his business wings as a senior management
consultant at Accenture, and COO of AlidioMichelli, a fashion house with office
in Moscow, Milan and New York. Claudio keeps the Recoup train running on time, creates
fancy workflows and connects all the dots within the Recoup organization. When he’s

Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer
luca.p@recoup.com
Luca Pivato, technology entrepreneur by day and neighborhood volunteer by night,
dreamed up the idea behind Recoup while trying to invent creative ways to offer
online services to community-based organizations to help them raise funds. Unlike
the CEOs of most technology companies today, Luca is not an avid hiker, kayaker,
or runner. He works. He plays with his boys, including his dog. He spends time with
his wife. He keeps his neighborhood clean and safe. For the past twenty years he
has been designing solid technologies that deliver consistent value to his customers.
In addition to Recoup, his other company’s software is currently being used by hundreds
of corporations in at least sixty different countries.

Tim Clinton
Co-Founder and Chief Relationship Officer
tim.c@recoup.com
Tim’s job as the CRO is to foster and support Recoup’s relationships with our nonprofit
and retail partners. Tim is an entrepreneur and attorney with a lifetime commitment
to charity. After Harvard, Tim spent two years as Director of Programs at the Center
for Middle East Peace. Tim’s greatest accomplishment, however, was convincing his

of Boggle, Tim’s three elementary school-age children beat him regularly. They get
it from their mother.
