Gianluca Bennati

Gianluca began his career in 1999, building high impact animated websites with Macromedia Flash (that’s right, Flash fans – it wasn’t in the hands of Adobe yet!), more specifically coding in Action Script – a big influencer of what we know today as JavaScript. His journey as a developer continued with building solutions for global business such as Decathlon and Costa Crociere, collaborating with many advertising agencies, and developing election platforms for Italian politicians. He also had the opportunity to be part of a mentoring program at an Italian design high school, teaching technology and computer graphics for 8 years. Although Gian is proficient with a handful of programming languages (C++, Java, Python), he most enjoys coding in PHP, JavaScript and MySQL. Fun fact: Gianluca has a passion for progressive music (his favourite band is Dream Theater) and knows how to shred an electric guitar, having played for 20 years!
