Edoardo Secchi

Edoardo Secchi has spent more than three decades at the intersection of business, finance and economic diplomacy. Not as an observer, but as a leading player.

As the founder of Italy-France Group in 1993, he has advised entrepreneurs, multinational corporations, investors and public institutions throughout their growth, international expansion and strategic positioning between Italy and France. His expertise has not been shaped by observing markets from the outside, but by working within them every day.

A pioneer of modern Franco-Italian economic relations, he has built one of the most qualified cross-border business ecosystems between the two countries, connecting executives, investors, public decision-makers and business leaders. He is the founder and President of Club Italie-France, the first organisation dedicated to relational and economic diplomacy between France and Italy.

A recognised voice in the Franco-Italian economic dialogue, he has authored dozens of articles, analyses and white papers on the key issues shaping Europe’s future—including industrial competitiveness, energy, innovation, economic sovereignty and Franco-Italian cooperation. He is regularly interviewed by leading Italian and French media as a reference point for economic and institutional affairs along the Rome–Paris axis.

Today, through IFG1993, he places his experience, his network and his strategic insight at the service of entrepreneurs, investors and organisations seeking to build a strong and lasting presence between Italy and France.
