About Me

John Elkann is the chairman and CEO of Exor, the holding company of Italy's Agnelli family, which owns stakes in Ferrari, the Economist magazine and Italian automaker Fiat. Elkann took the leadership role in the family and at Fiat in 2004, one year after the death of his grandfather and family patriarch Gianni Agnelli. He oversaw deals including FIAT's 2009 acquisition of a stake in Chrysler and its merger with Peugeot in January 2021 to form Stellantis. Exor's portfolio includes Italian football team Juventus and media organizations including the Economist and several leading Italian newspapers. The family dynasty began in 1899 when Giovanni Agnelli, John's great-great-grandfather, founded FIAT in the northern Italian city of Turin.
