In an exciting development for ESCP Business School, Professor Alberta Di Giuli has been appointed as the new Dean of the Turin campus, succeeding Professor Francesco Rattalino.
The Board of Directors took this important decision at its meeting on 30 June, and Professor Di Giuli took up her new position on 1 July. Professor Rattalino, after a decade of leadership at the Turin campus, moved to Paris as Executive Vice-President in charge of Academic Affairs and Student Experience at ESCP.
Expressing her gratitude for the appointment, Professor Di Giuli said:
I am honoured to receive this appointment from the Board, whom I thank for their trust. I embrace this opportunity with great enthusiasm, fully aware that the Turin campus is undergoing a remarkable period of growth and transformation. Being appointed as the Dean at this pivotal moment is particularly exciting. Ensuring continuity will be paramount for the advancement of the campus and its significance on the national stage. We shall persist in our ability to address global challenges by employing a multicultural approach to nurture and prepare the leaders of tomorrow.

Today, at this symbolic moment when I hand over the baton to Professor Alberta Di Giuli, a new chapter opens for ESCP in Italy, certainly in continuity with the excellence that has always distinguished us, but with new leadership that will foster innovation and give our school even more international impact. I leave the campus and our fantastic team in the hands of an outstanding leader. I could not have wished for a better successor.
