Background
- In the 1980s, along with other leading business figures, he founded the European Round Table of Industrialists, of which he was vice president until 2004.
- In 1997 he created the Gruppo Editoriale L'Espresso (L'Espresso Editorial Group),[2] by merging the L'Espresso and La Repubblica editorial groups. Carlo Caracciolo was appointed president of the group. However, Carlo De Benedetti assumed the presidency in 2006, after the death of Caracciolo.[3] On 26 January 2009, at a press conference, De Benedetti announced his decision to retire from all his executive positions in the CIR group, keeping only - at the request of the Board of Directors - the position of Chairman of the Espresso Group. All the executive positions in the CIR group were given to the current Chief Executive, Rodolfo De Benedetti.[4]
- Carlo De Benedetti has often been identified with Italian centre left politics.[5] He has a long-standing feud with Silvio Berlusconi, and his L'Espresso editorial group currently publishes the main centre-left-leaning Italian newspaper (La Repubblica) and newsmagazine (L'Espresso). He has been called a "foe of Berlusconi" by the Wall Street Journal.[4]
