GIANLUCA ENRIETTI

Biography

Gianluca Enrietti - CEO and co-founder of Toduba An entrepreneur and innovator, Gianluca Enrietti has built his career around two guiding words: infrastructure and solutions. Born in Turin and trained in architecture, he brings to Information Technology a design-driven mindset that would become his hallmark: every system is an infrastructure, every solution is a digital building that must be solid, scalable and sustainable. His entrepreneurial journey began in industrial and civil design, architecture, engineering and design. The decisive move into technology came in 2005, when he founded Tecne, a technology services company specialising in digital infrastructure and tailor-made solutions for businesses. It was along this path that he developed the conviction that would guide his entire career: the market needs efficient, ethical platforms designed to last. In 2016 he began to imagine something that did not yet exist: a transactional app integrated with accounting processes, capable of vertical scalability. Together with Giorgio Potenza and Bruno Cavigioli, he founded Toduba, a digital ecosystem that integrates blockchain, cloud computing, distributed databases and deep-storage archives, born with a first concrete application in welfare. In 2017, Clik App was launched to bring Toduba to market. What started as an innovative start-up is now listed in the register of innovative SMEs of the Turin Chamber of Commerce. The start-up entered incubation and stood out as the strongest of the 100 selected for BAM LAB, the incubator of Banca delle Alpi Marittime (BCC ICCREA Group). In 2019, following a selection process, it joined Deloitte's "Officine Innovazione" programme, developing a dedicated business plan with the renowned consultancy firm: the first foundations of a steady path of growth and prestigious partnerships. In 2020 came the toughest test: Covid brought everything and everyone to a standstill. It was a moment that could have marked the end of the adventure. Gianluca responded the way self-made entrepreneurs do: rather than retreating, he seized the opportunity. He adapted Toduba's blockchain technology to create "one-cent vouchers", enabling several Italian municipalities to distribute Covid grocery vouchers to citizens in need easily, conveniently and securely, down to the last cent. That insight opened up the public administration market. Toduba earned the trust of business angels and investors from the very start. It has grown and today relies on solid, prestigious shareholders and partners such as CDP Venture Capital SGR, Azimut and P101, the venture capital fund backing some of Italy's most significant consumer scaleups - including Cortilia, Tannico and Velasca - confirming Toduba's potential as a future category leader, not only in welfare. Toduba is in fact a "processor": a versatile technology that enables payment models and digital services, applicable across multiple sectors. Gianluca has always chosen the more demanding path: building a fully compliant, sustainable and supervised model. So much so that in 2026 Toduba notified the Bank of Italy of its entry as a company operating in payment services based on limited-network instruments. It voluntarily accepts supervision and grows without ever compromising on compliance. The vision is clear: innovation with responsibility, in a market where digital too often offers shortcuts that are not always above board.
