Domenic Carosa co-founded destra Corporation in 1993, when he was in his late teens.  Domenic has been responsible for transforming destra into the multi-million dollar company it is today. 
 
Domenic has considerable experience in the IT sector, building the second-largest virtual web hosting company in Australia (OzHosting.com) from the ground up, playing a major force behind destra's listing on the ASX in 2000.
 
At the time, Domenic was the youngest CEO of a public-listed company in Australia. Under his direction, destra has branched out from its core web hosting and communications business to become one of Australia's leading independent media companies.

Domenic is committed to innovation, with other achievements including building Australia's largest independent digital music website (MP3.com.au) and launching Australia's first legal and commercial digital download service (destraMusic). In the early 90s, he co-founded the Sprint Group.
 
Domenic is currently Chairman of the Internet Industry Association, Chairman of the IIA Digital Music Taskforce and has won numerous young achiever awards. He is also founding Director and major shareholder in Musicpoint, a B2B digital service for the music industry.
