Danijell Nikolla, or Vaso to his friends, is the owner and founder of many successful places and projects in the city of Split. He is the initiator of the renowned festival San Sustipanske noći in Split, which marks its tenth anniversary this year. He is the owner of the restaurant Corto Maltese, one of the justifiably most popular restaurants in Split, and the vegetarian and plant-based restaurant Pandora Greenbox. Through his company Ritam Produkcije he has brought life to Split’s winter nights and he is one of the initiators of Advent in Split. He believes that one has to be persistent and diverse in one’s work, but that it’s also important to remain modest and keep in mind the needs of the local community.
