Biography
[edit]Early Life and Education
[edit]Born in Foggia in 1994, Ippolito displayed an early interest in both journalism and engineering. As a young writer, he contributed to publications such as Calcio 2000, Calciomercato.com, and the Puglia edition of Corriere dello Sport, where he continues to write as a correspondent from Foggia, covering the Foggia football team.[1] He earned a bachelor’s degree in civil engineering and environmental engineering at the Polytechnic University of Bari, with a thesis examining building collapses, focusing particularly on structural failures[2] and on the 1999 collapse of the Viale Giotto building in Foggia.[3] He subsequently completed a master’s degree in structural engineering at the same institution, graduating with honors. His research included an exploration of machine learning applications for the automatic detection of damage in bridges.[4][5][6]
Career
[edit]Engineering
[edit]Francesco Ippolito began his professional career with Webuild, where he contributed to bridge and structural design. He later joined Pizzarotti, working as a TBM engineer on high-speed rail infrastructure, including the line between Naples–Bari, specifically on the Bovino-Orsara and Hirpinia-Orsara sections.[7][8]
Science Communication
[edit]Ippolito is recognized for his efforts in promoting STEM fields through accessible explanations of engineering concepts.[7] In 2024, he was ranked as the leading STEM creator in Italy on LinkedIn, where he discusses topics such as bridge and tunnel construction.[9][10][11]
Authorship
[edit]Ippolito has written extensively about the history of Inter’s football jerseys, reconstructing the historical evolution of the team’s jerseys, combining over a thousand detailed illustrations with stories and curiosities that highlight their cultural and historical significance. His first book, Orgoglio Nerazzurro: La storia della maglia dell'Inter, was published in 2016[12] and updated in 2019.[13] This book provided an illustrated evolution of Nerazzurri jerseys.[14][15]
In 2023, he published Le maglie dell'Inter: Tutte le divise nerazzurre dal 1908 a oggi, an official and comprehensive encyclopedia of the team’s jerseys, featuring contributions from figures such as Javier Zanetti and Andrea Bocelli.[16][17] Le maglie dell'Inter features every jersey design since the club’s foundation, accompanied by historical context and anecdotes: the volume not only chronicles the history of all Inter jerseys (home, away, third kits, and additional variations, as well as goalkeeper uniforms) but also delves into the history of competition and commemorative patches on sleeves, the evolution of the club’s logos, advancements in fabric technology, the story of the mixed selection team with AC Milan, and the history of training and pre-match jerseys.[18][19][20] The book reached bestseller status, ranking among the top-selling books in Italy and surpassing Prince Harry’s memoir Spare on its release day.[21][22][23][24] The book has also been translated into English under the title The Jerseys of Inter. All the Black-and-Blue uniforms from 1908 to today.[25][26]
