At the Ministry of the Interior, Inchingolo has taken on the role of head of social and digital communications, managing the department’s digital strategyo. With an aggressive and targeted campaign, the journalist managed to increase the impact of ministerial initiatives, from the implementation of immigration policies to public safety operations.
