After having started my career as assistant professor in Economics, I have spent the last more than 20 years as CEO of energy companies and as an advocate of corporations’ crucial role in promoting ESG criteria for sustainable development – economical, social, cultural and environmental. Over the last 15 years my work has been anticipating trends in the energy sector, aligning its business model with the energy transition, the challenges of climate change and shaping the world of renewable energies, leading the creation of a world leader in the area.
