Erica Campilongo has been part of the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), the UN specialized agency for ICTs, since 2011. Today, she works in the Strategic Tech and Academia Initiatives Division of the ITU Standardization Bureau, where she helps build meaningful bridges between the ITU and universities, laboratories, and research institutions around the world. She enjoys connecting people and ideas, and supporting collaborations that advance shared knowledge in technology and innovation.

As a publishing editor, Erica contributes to the editorial direction and production of two international peer‑reviewed journals – the ITU Journal on Future and Evolving Technologies (ITU J‑FET) and Intelligent and Converged Networks. She also plays an active role in the ITU Kaleidoscope academic conferences, coordinating special sessions and shaping the exhibitions that bring cutting‑edge research to a global audience.

Earlier in her ITU career, she worked in the Study Group Division, supporting projects and studies focused on ICTs, climate change and environmental sustainability – topics she remains passionate about.

Before joining ITU, Erica worked at the Permanent Mission of Italy in Geneva and at the European Parliament in Brussels, conducting policy analysis on innovation, humanitarian issues, and social affairs.

Erica holds a BA in International and European Law and an MA in International Relations from the University of Milan, including a study year at Université Jean Moulin Lyon III.
