Icon Of Impact: The CEO Making Lottery A Global Force For Impact

This Icon is on a mission to not just take one of the last remaining paper-based industries digital (the lottery) but turn it into an impact powerhouse.

First on his hit list? Ending extreme hunger – and he may have a shot at it.

Meet Tony DiMatteo, CEO of Lottery.com. The first time I met Tony we were in a garden at the Vatican. I convinced him to come join me for an impact investing forum (not a tough sell) after his work trip in Norway. It was over bucatini all'Amatriciana and green tea that I got to know him well and found myself moved by his style of leadership and genuine drive to do good in the world.

Fast forward a few months later and he joined us onstage at the Forbes Impact Summit (as a partner and sponsor) where he launched a partnership with Rihanna’s nonprofit, the Clara Lionel Foundation.

This is our most recent conversation together.
