Giacomo Barbieri is an Assistant Professor in the Asset Management and Maintenance Engineering Chair at the University of Twente (Netherlands). He earned his bachelor's and master's degrees in Mechanical Engineering (2010 and 2012, respectively) and a Ph.D. in Industrial Innovation Engineering (2016) from the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia. From 2016 to 2023, he served at Universidad de los Andes (Bogot谩, Colombia), initially as an Assistant Professor and later as an Associate Professor, before moving to the Netherlands in 2024. He is an active member of the technical committees of both the International Federation of Automatic Control (IFAC), specifically in 'Manufacturing Plant Control' (TC 5.1), and The Institute of Asset Management (IAM).

Giacomo has a background in industrial automation and digital transformation technologies, which have progressively shaped his research focus in Asset Management, Smart Maintenance, Stakeholder Engagement, and Decision Making. He thrives in transdisciplinary environments, where he applies human-centric and value-based approaches to these technological domains.
