Paolo Travisi

Paolo Travisi began his journalism career in 2004 as an editor for the 7Gold television network, an extraordinary training ground where he became a professional journalist, producing TV reports on topics ranging from news to culture, and contributing to programs and talk shows hosted by figures such as Aldo Biscardi, Alessandro Milan, and David Parenzo. Alongside his television work, he started writing for the online edition of Il Messaggero, then led by Davide Desario (now Director of AdnKronos), and later contributed science, technology, and culture articles to the newspaper’s print edition. His passion for writing and science led him to collaborate with the historic TuttoScienze column in La Stampa, where he interviewed prominent Italian and international scientists. From science to sustainability, he also contributed to Green&Blue by la Repubblica. At Rinnovabili, he writes daily with great enthusiasm about electric mobility, conducts car test drives, and creates videos for the outlet’s social media channels.
