Ezio Denti: who is he?
Born in 1958, Ezio Denti was born on 24 October in Teramo, from a father who is an employee of the Ministry of Education and a housewife mother. His first passion is for music and it is this that, at the age of only 21, leads him to become a session player. Described as the best bassist of the time, he is also an appreciated lyricist is composer. In this period he travels the world, on tour with both Italian and foreign artists.
Restless spirit, he slowly realizes that interest in music is waning.
At 28, she has a kind of enlightenment. He is with the musical group of that period in Torre del Lago Puccini, in the province of Lucca, and while he is resting in the hotel he hears a noise that attracts his curiosity. It is a hang gliding motor, which is landing in a field close to him.
Ezio has always loved to fly and decides to “hang up the instrument” to open one of the first Italian schools for the training of motorized and ultralight hang gliders.
As the headquarters he chooses Massarosa, Tuscany, and with the passion running through his veins he buys his first one helicopter. From this moment on, Denti became a reference name in the field of private aeronautics. From 1983 until 1986 he was a partner of EliVersilia, an aerial work company that pushes him to take the pilot, commander and instructor license. After selling the company to third parties, Ezio settles in Varese and buys the Eliservice, based in Cantù.

Winning the Italy Lottery
Ezio Denti was one of the lucky ones who won an award from the Lottery Italy. It was the year 1996 and he was returning from a business trip to Tuscany. At the motorway restaurant with a friend, the latter convinces him to buy three lottery tickets. He humors him and, as soon as he gets back into the house, casually throws them on the desk. A few days later, by chance, he finds himself listening to the lottery draw on television: the numbers of the ticket that wins the third prize sound familiar.
He always had a good memory, but to make sure he just earned it 4 and a half billion of lire awaits the following day. The win, which Ezio tried to keep secret, was leaked to the newspapers by his friend. The latter, having checked the series of tickets in his possession, had understood who the lucky one was. “An experience traumatic from the point of view of friendship, ”admits Ezio. The large sum of money was invested in real estate and helicopters.
The beginning of the adventure in the world of investigations
While continuing his activity in the aeronautical field, Denti has been cultivating another passion for years: “investigations and criminalistics”. As a self-taught man he studies news cases such as Il Mostro di Firenze, until, almost for fun, he decides to get serious. Why did you start this adventure?
“I was in an airport base in the province of Novara, where we flew 5/6 thousand hours a year, and there were always many onlookers. Among the many guests, one particularly intrigues me: he has a gun in his belt. I saw him every Saturday and Sunday and, in the end, I ask him what work he does. He replies ‘Private investigator’. It comes naturally to me to answer: ‘What a shit job!’. He looks at me and replies: ‘You try it’. I accept the challenge and after a month I have the licenses ”, says Denti.
Thus, in 2001, after having attended internships in investigative studies in Italy, Switzerland and England, he began a two-year collaboration with the Ministry of Grace and Justice. Later he devotes himself to his agency, trying to understand what can make a difference in an environment like this.
