Lucia Giancaspro shares the challenges of establishing a compliance function and reorganising the legal team to fit within an expanding global business.
GC: Could you describe your role and background for our readers?
Lucia Giancaspro (LG): I have been working as general counsel for the company for four years more or less, but I came from a very different environment. My previous company is actually in the renewable energy sector. What I have always done when changing roles is to work in sectors that were quite important at the time. So I started in the internet industry, then I worked in quite a big telecommunications company (Fastweb), then UniCredit Bank for about two years, and then Falck Renewables. And now I am here, in the digital area.
