Marco Cocurullo’s award winning entrepreneurial skills catapulted him to the top of his game at an early age.  Drawing from his ten years management experience in the tourism and hospitality industries he set up his first business in 2004 with the development of an online booking engine for accommodation in Sorrento, Italy. Marco is the co-founder of The Coffee Gang and also works as Assistant Resident Manager at the Somerset Darling Harbour.

Marco was raised in the heart of the Amalfi coast, regularly spending time in the country’s coffee capital of Napoli surrounded by one of the world’s finest coffee and cuisine.  Grandson of Pasquale Cocurullo, Italy’s leading Barista of the 1950′s, Marco’s passion for exquisite coffee runs through all aspects of his life.

He joined the Sydney Slow Food Committee with the intent of assisting the association in promoting the importance of local produce, especially amongst the younger generations.  Marco hopes to spread his passion and share his learning of quality food and organic produce through his involvement in Slow Food Sydney.
