Matteo Franceschetti has always been obsessed with performance; athletic performance, business performance, and now sleep performance. An athlete from a young age, he was a competitive ski racer in his native Italy and played tennis, and raced cars on the European stage. Matteo has always been focused on winning and on winning in record time. That drive to succeed propelled him from the sports podiums to the top tier of the international legal world and to start two clean tech companies on two continents, all before age 30. Not surprisingly, sleepless nights were a way of life. It was Matteo’s quest for more restorative sleep that led him to quit his previous life and launch Eight Sleep, a New York company dedicated to fueling human potential to optimal sleep, and to turning the bed into a seamless health platform for improved health, performance, and longevity. The path he took to becoming the CEO of Eight Sleep, however, is as circuitous as the tracks he raced in his youth.

“We don’t think of sleep like a lazy moment, or like a lazy Sunday in bed, we think of that moment exactly like with the same attitude that you have to go to the gym. You need to invest the 6, 7, 8 hours every single day to be sleep fit.” 22:13
