Biography

In 1974 he graduated in Law from the University of Milan. He was the Manager of Albertini Cesare Spa, a company working in the aluminium pressure die casting sector, from 1974 to 1997. In 1987 he became a delegate for small business on the executive board of Federmeccanica (the Italian Mechanical Engineers' Trade Union Federation) and in 1996 he became its Chairman (until 1997).

In 1997 he was elected Mayor of Milan, with the support of the centre-right coalition, and held office until 2006.

In the 2004 European election and the subsequent 2009 EP election, he was elected MEP. He was a member of the European People's Party's group, and sat on the European Parliament's Committee on Transport and Tourism. He was also a delegate on the Committee on Industry, Research and Energy, Vice-Chair of the Delegation for Relations at NATO's Parliamentary Assembly and a member of the EU's Delegation for Relations with the United States.

In 2013 he ran for President of the Lombardy region, supported by a centrist coalition, but he got only 4.12% of the vote. In the same year, he was elected Senator on the Civic Choice list.
