Marco Riva

Marco Riva is the CEO of Crossbay and is responsible for the overall strategy of the platform as well as for all investment and operational decisions, with oversight from MARK’s global investment committee.

Prior to forming Crossbay with Marcus Meijer in 2018, Marco worked for 5 years at Logicor, Blackstone’s European logistics platform, where he invested over €2 billion in logistics properties across Europe, and where he played an instrumental role in constructing and managing Logicor’s portfolio as well as the sale of the company to CIC in 2018.

During his tenure at Logicor, Marco saw an opportunity to access the growing last-mile logistics sector in Europe via an aggregation strategy targeting assets in urban infill locations in or around supply-constrained European consumption centres. In 2018 he formed Crossbay with Marcus and began executing the strategy across Italy and Spain before expanding into a number of other major European markets. They have since grown Crossbay into a fully-vertically integrated, pan-European platform with local logistics specialists located across Europe, supported by the centralised tax, accounting and other support functions of MARK in London.

Marco began his career at Goldman Sachs in Italy and graduated from the University of Bologna with a Bachelor’s Degree in Business Administration. Marco speaks Italian, English and French.
