Giuseppe Sala was born in 1958 in Milan. He graduated in 1983 in Economics and Business from Bocconi University.

Thanks to positions of responsibility in the private and public sector, Giuseppe Sala - known as Beppe - has important professional managerial experience behind him: from positions in Pirelli and Telecom to the leadership of Expo Milano 20.

After having assumed managerial roles in Pirelli and Telecom Italia, in January 2009 Sala, called by the Municipality of Milan as General Director, honored this position until his appointment as CEO of Expo 2015 SpA, which took place in June 2010.

In May 2013 he was appointed Sole Commissioner delegate of the Government for Expo Milano 2015.

His love for Milan and the belief that he can do something to make it, together with the metropolitan city, an increasingly fair, welcoming and attractive place on an international level pushes him to take the path of politics.

Elected mayor of Milan for the first time on 5 June 2016, he was confirmed for the second term on 4 October 2021.
