A long-standing Accenture employee, Benasso began his career at the software firm in 1984, progressing through the ranks. From 2006 until 2021, he served as CEO of Accenture Italy, and from 2013 to 2023, as president of Accenture Italy, alongside other roles within the executive committee.
Commenting on the appointment, TAS CEO Valentino Bravi says Benasso’s proven managerial experience makes him “a key figure in guiding the TAS group towards a future of innovation, technological leadership and sustainability” – areas it claims to have already invested in.
Benasso says he intends to leverage this experience in his new role as part of his responsibility to invest in “technology and people” and “work towards a sustainable economy”, and will oversee the development of projects “in a critical and ever-evolving sector like payments”.
The company recently acquired fellow Italian fintech Mitobit via its subsidiary Global Payments, for an undisclosed sum, marking its fourth acquisition since July 2022.
In August last year, it acquired Italian payments technology and business consulting firm Krisopea for an undisclosed sum, along with software solutions provider Astro IT, and e-money software and consultancy services vendor Nemos.
