Gianluca joined PANTA RAY in 2019 with the goal to develop a brand-new research function on business continuity and resilience disciplines. After a couple of years, PANTA RAY has now strengthened its role as thought leader and innovator in the industry.
Previously, Gianluca used to work as Research Manager at the Business Continuity Institute, where he authored well-known publications such as the Horizon Scan Survey, Emergency Communications, Cyber Resilience and Supply Chain Resilience reports for four years. He is an experienced public speaker who has delivered talks for audiences in Europe, North America, Australasia, and Africa.
Since joining PANTA RAY, he has been working on the synergies between business continuity and other disciplines, such as sustainability, insurance, and supply chain. His work leverages strong academic connections with several universities around the world, especially with the Polytechnic School of Milan, where he is currently an Executive PhD student. The focus of his main thesis is the impact of business continuity management systems on supply chain resilience. His background is also rooted in international relations and security, which he studied at John Cabot University, the London School of Economics and King’s College London.
Gianluca holds a Certificate of the Business Continuity Institute.
Outside of Work: Outside of PANTA RAY, you are likely to find him on a tennis court where he competes in local tournaments, although he will rarely miss the friendly Sunday doubles at his local club. Other than that, he always enjoys a good book and having a stroll around the Colosseum in central Rome, his hometown.
