Biography
Alessio Esu works in the construction sector in Sardinia, where he leads business activities serving both public and private clients. He graduated in Civil Engineering from the University of Cagliari and the Polytechnic University of Turin, and has gained over ten years of professional experience in Italy and abroad, holding roles of increasing responsibility in technical, commercial, and managerial fields.
After an initial experience as a project manager in a local company active in public procurement, he continued his career internationally, collaborating with multinational companies in various European countries. For Hilti, a world leader in construction solutions, he was responsible for business development in the railway sector in the United Kingdom, supporting designers and contractors in selecting technical solutions for complex infrastructures. He later moved to London, where he pursued his career in major engineering consultancy firms, holding managerial and executive roles in sales.
He has supported international clients in the energy, aerospace, automotive, and railway sectors, gaining a cross-sector view of the challenges and opportunities common to different industries. This experience allowed him to understand how technological solutions and human expertise are often transferable across sectors, reinforcing the importance of an integrated and multidisciplinary approach to innovation.
In recent years, Alessio has become increasingly engaged with the topic of energy transition, initially out of personal interest and later professionally, with particular attention to the Sardinian territory. He attended an intensive training program on green transition management, promoted by the Graduate School of Management of the Polytechnic University of Milan, which provided him with a solid theoretical and practical foundation on the main economic, technological, and environmental aspects of decarbonization and sustainable development.
Today, his commitment is focused on creating value in and for Sardinia, with a global approach tailored to the local context, and with particular attention to balancing technological innovation, territorial impact, and social well-being.
