Franco Giannini was born in Galatina, in 1944 and graduated in Electronics Engineering, summa cum laude in 1968, before getting the chair of Full Professor of Applied Electronics in 1980. In 2008, he was awarded the Laurea Honoris Causa Scientiarum Technicarum degree by the Warsaw University of Technology, Poland. Since 1981 he has been at the University of Roma Tor Vergata, where he has served as Head of Department, Vice President for International Affairs, Pro-Rector, and Dean of the Faculty of Electronics Engineering. He has chaired the Microwave Engineering Centre for Space Applications. He has been working on modeling, characterization and design methodologies of active and passive microwave components and circuits, including MICs and MMICs for telecommunication and space applications, authoring or co-authoring more than 400 scientific contributions. He chaired the theme MMICs of the national project MADESS I of the CNR and was a member of the Management Board of MADESS II, chairman of the theme MMICs of the National Project MICROELECTRONICS, and member of the Board of Directors of the Italian Space Agency. He has also been active in European Projects and was the Italian representative in the European Working Group for GaAs Microelectronics. He has been a consultant for various national and international organizations, including the ITU for the United Nations Development Program, and the European Union for ESPRIT, LTR, ISTC projects. In 1996 Professor Giannini was awarded the Irena Galewska Kielbasinski Prize by the Technical University of Darmstadt, Germany, and an Honorary Professorship by WUT, Poland, in 2001.

Giorgio Leuzzi received a degree in electronic engineering from the University of Roma, Italy, in 1982. In 1983; he served in the Italian Army as an officer in the Technical Corps. In 1984 he became research assistant at the University of Roma Tor Vergata and taught Microwave Electronics there. He worked in the field of microwave integrated
