In 2018 she was nominated ‘The most influential woman in the digital industry’ by magazine Digitalic Mag.[3]

In spring 2019 she declined to be the leading candidate for the 5 Star Movement (Movimento 5 Stelle) at the European Elections[4] to keep her position of City Council member (Assessor) under Mayor of Turin Chiara Appendino and therefore to continue working on the projects already started in that constituency.

City Council member (Assessor) in charge of innovation in the Turin constituency (2017–2019)

During her mandate as City Council member (Assessor) in charge of digital development in the Turin constituency, she kickstarted the testing of self-driving cars, launching also the first self-driving bus service.[5] She incentivized companies in joining the testing of high-financial-risk hi-tech products in the city of Turin through the Torino City Lab[6] project.

During her mandate she was also involved in the digitalization of public services, launching the portal Torino Facile.[7] For the first time ever, the historic centre hosted two shows featuring several drones.

Minister of Technological Innovation and Digitalization (2019–)

On 5 September 2019 she was appointed as Minister of Technological Innovation and Digitalization in the Conte II Cabinet.

On 17 December 2019 she unveiled in Rome the Digital Republic Manifesto (Manifesto della Repubblica Digitale) with the objective of relaunching digital identity and domicile, revamping traditional manufacturing sectors, achieving inclusive and sustainable development.

"What we offer is a shared vision, able to address the Country towards a technological and digital transformation, which involves three challenges: digitalization, innovation, ethical and sustainable development.”[8]

A supporter of technologies developed through ethical, inclusive, transparent means, in full respect of civil rights, on 18 February 2020 she signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Fondazione Leonardo to outline the ethical and juridical context within which to develop and apply artificial intelligence, especially to meet the public administration needs of the City council.

She signed on behalf of the Italian Government the ‘Call for Ethics’ by the Pontifical Academy for Life for the development of Artificial Intelligence, together with Microsoft, IBM, UN Food and Agricultural Organization.

In March 2020, to reduce the socio-economic impact of the Coronavirus pandemic, she became the driving force behind a project promoting digital solidarity, through which she invited both individuals and public figures to share services, competencies and energy[9] to support Italy's students and workers.
