Giampaolo Rossi, Chief Executive Officer of Rai, has recently discussed the company's strategic direction and defended its role as an industrial hub for the Italian audiovisual sector. In a July 2026 interview with AdnTalks, he described Rai as "un hub industriale che tiene in piedi intere filiere dell'industria dell'audiovisivo italiano" and stated that the company produces nearly double the content of the BBC while operating with a license fee less than half that of the French public broadcaster. He also addressed the suspension of summer reruns of the program "Report," describing the decision as one of "tutela" (protection) and stating that Rai Play is a space for experimentation with diversified content. At the 2026 Innovation Festival, Rossi discussed the transformation of the media landscape, arguing that television has undergone a structural change in how people consume content. He stated that Rai is not defined by "la polemica giornalistica" or "il gusto estetico di qualche critico," but rather as a complex industry that supports Italian cinema and fiction. He also described a "fase di delegittimazione del giornalismo" driven by technological disintermediation and the rise of artificial intelligence. In a July 2023 presentation of Rai's programming in Ancona, Rossi outlined the company's plan to become a digital media company, emphasizing that investments in technology and production facilities are prerequisites for editorial quality.
