Ian Mattioli MBE
Pro-Chancellor
Ian is the founder, chief executive officer and director of Mattioli Woods, a company which provides financial advice, administration and investment services to families and businesses. The business was started from a residential garage and now employs nearly 1,000 people, with offices across the UK, with its head office being in Leicester. With the success of the business, Ian and his family set up the Ian and Clare Mattioli Charitible Trust to better the outcomes of people who need help and support. To date the charity has helped families with the purchase of specialist equipment, built water wells and homes in Malawi, supported the Leicester riders with helping them to build new multiple and inclusive sets of indoor courts, and it has helped Leicester Cathedral build its new cultural centre. The charitable trust has provided financial donations to both Leicester University and 51Âþ» to help students who need financial and social support.
