Giulia Marzetti stands out as a compelling speaker for organisations wanting a deeper understanding of climate action, sustainability, and the technologies transforming cities and industry. Her background blends engineering, policy, consulting, and innovation management, giving her a rare ability to translate complex challenges into practical pathways for action.

With a foundation as a female engineer working across sectors, Giulia has built a portfolio career shaped by curiosity, impact, and a consistent drive to accelerate the green transition.

As a Project and Policy Officer at the European Commission, Giulia has been responsible for a substantial €80 million portfolio of sustainable innovation projects across Europe. Her mandate has included supporting research, funding strategic developments, and guiding policy on cutting-edge industrial applications designed to advance Europe’s green transition.

This experience gives her talks a level of depth that resonates with decision-makers. She speaks fluently about how innovation systems work, how public and private sectors can collaborate, and how major climate and industrial transitions are shaped from the inside. Audiences gain a clear view of how policy, technology and markets interact and what opportunities lie ahead for those ready to adapt.

I have known Giulia since years. When I decided to refresh my linked in profile, I knew she was the right person to go to. Her previous career as an engineer gave her the analytical skills to quickly understand what I needed and her creativity, when it comes to digital marketing, allowed her to give the exact advise I was looking for. After modifying my profile with her help, within 2 weeks I was approached by a few people with my ideal client profile. She found the perfect solution which gave me the outcome I wanted.

Giulia and I got to know each other while studying chemical engineering at the University of Aberdeen. Since we had the same major, I was curiously following her ambitious career steps focussing on sustainability right after finishing university. Her published content and tireless work in this field impresses me a lot and was a big inspiration for me to do so as well. Now, I am very happy to have switched to the field of sustainability consulting, supporting companies fighting climate change. Keep on Guila, I am confident you will inspire even more people!

I was incredibly inspired by Giulia's speech at the WomenX Impact event 2022 about being changemakers for sustainability. She definitely has a great experience and was able to share it professionally on the stage. Moreover, I took away multiple reflection points from Giulia's talk, from acknowledging present-bias, to the different layers we need to work on to achieve sustainability and the connection between a sustainable future and gender equality. Her work and efforts in workshops and mentoring programs dedicated to women are truly admirable, and the fact that she is also able to have her own podcast is just amazing. From her storytelling skills and the reflection points she presented, I would surely want to see her at other events as well!

Giulia Lombardi PhD | Policy Officer @European Commission

I worked with Giulia directly on the Dubai Metro Selected Station Enhancement Project. While she was working on the project as a system engineer, Giulia demonstrated initiative in communicating with designers and coordinating their work in several engineering disciplines. During her work she demonstrated sound competence in systems engineering, requirement and project management. She was able to integrate quickly within the team, work under pressure and was very responsive despite the time difference. I will therefore recommender her as a valuable addition to any team. As I look back now and compare those days with today, she has already proven every word of mine written here. All the best and good luck.
