CEO, Lutech
Giuseppe Di Franco leads Lutech, one of Italy’s largest players in digital technology and artificial intelligence, with six thousand people across Italy, Spain and Albania. He drives its growth by combining industrial vision with a concrete focus on results.
A graduate in Management Engineering from Politecnico di Milano in 1992, he devoted his early career to mergers and acquisitions, digital and outsourcing projects across Europe. In 2005 he joined the Siemens Group as Senior Vice President and advanced through international roles, going on to manage over two billion euros in revenue across seventy countries.
In 2013 he took over the leadership of Atos Italia as Chief Executive Officer, quadrupling its revenue, and later assumed global-level responsibilities. In 2023 he designed the acquisition of Atos Italia by Apax: a transformative operation that led Lutech to become the new, major hub of Italian digital technology, which he now leads as Chief Executive Officer.
Giuseppe Di Franco collaborates with the Politecnico di Milano as an Adjunct Professor at the University’s Graduate School of Management, a Board Member of the GSoM, and a Top Influencer Alumnus. He is a member of several associations, including the Ambrosetti CEO Club, Canova, Elis, and Diplomatia, where he also serves on the Board of Directors. In March 2026 he signed with Mondadori Piemme «Artificial Intelligence for the Future of Italy»: an essay that explores AI as a lever of competitiveness for the country and for Europe, with a firm focus on digital sovereignty.
