Early life and education
Belviso was born in Bari where he attended the scientific lyceum. He then moved to northern Italy, Switzerland and France for his university education. Belviso holds a M.Sc. in mechanical engineering from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology of Lausanne, a LL.M. in space and telecommunications law from the University of Paris XI and a B.Eng in aerospace engineering from the Polytechnic University of Turin.
Career and interests

Blackshape Aircraft
In 2009, at the age of 25, Belviso founded the company Blackshape Aircraft, in Monopoli, with his friend Angelo Petrosillo as co-founder.
The early life of the company was initially granted by a regionally funded program for youth entrepreneurship, offering €25,000 grants. The company started to re-design a tandem two-seater aircraft (originally the Asso X) for the luxury market. One year later, the majority of shares were sold to the holding Angelo Investments and Blackshape became a stock company. Thanks to the capital expansion, the company started the certification of the first aircraft, named BS100 (commercial name Blackshape Prime), and the serial manufacturing, gaining relevant market feedback thanks to its high-technology carbon fiber aircraft. In 2013 the company launched a new program, the BS115, for a larger two-seater for utility operations and training. Belviso leads the company as CEO and CTO.
