Dr. Gianluca Sgueo joins the cabinet of the Italian Minister for Technological Innovation and Digital Transition

Dr. Gianluca Sgueo, Associate Fellow at our Centre for Digitalisation, Democracy and Innovation and Adjunct Professor in our BA in Communication and Public Relations, joined the cabinet of the Italian Minister for Technological Innovation and Digital Transition.

The Ministry (and its 'Digital Transformation Team') is committed to make public services for citizens and businesses accessible in an easy manner, via a mobile first approach, with reliable, scalable and fault tolerant architectures, based on clearly defined APIs; and to support the different central and local government departments in making the best and most data driven decisions, thanks to the adoption of big data and machine learning techniques.

Gianluca's primary responsibility is to be the official speechwriter of the Minister, as well as of policy analyst on digitalisation and technological innovation in the public sector.
