biography

Bizzo studied at the University of Bologna Engineering ( laurea in ingegneria ). From 1989 to 1995 he was a member of the municipal council of the city of Bolzano , where he belonged to the Democrazia Cristiana faction . In 2000 he was re-elected - this time for the Noi per l'Alto Adige list , the local forerunner of Margherita - and was City Councilor for Public Works and Information Technology until 2005. In 2005 he was re-elected.

In the 2008 elections to the South Tyrolean state parliament and thus also to the regional council of Trentino-South Tyrol , Bizzo was third on the list of the Partito Democratico (PD) after preferential votes and thus the first non-elected behind Christian Tommasini and Barbara Repetto . Thereupon he took legal action against the election of Repetto and on January 21, 2010 was finally right. The court of cassation in Rome found that Repetto could not be elected as a member of the board of directors of a company with the participation of the Province of South Tyrol. On February 2, 2010, Bizzo was sworn in as a new member of the state parliament and after four rounds of voting he was elected to the state government ( Durnwalder V cabinet ). There he took over the departments of innovation, cooperatives, information technology, work, finance and household. In 2011 he became Vice President of the regional government of Trentino-South Tyrol . In the 2013 state elections , Bizzo succeeded in being re-elected with a strong increase in preferential votes. He was subsequently elected Vice President of the State Parliament. Halfway through the 2016 legislative period, he took over the presidency of the state parliament from Thomas Widmann in accordance with the intended rotation principle .

In February 2018, Bizzo left the PD and founded the one-man group Noi per l'Alto Adige . As the top candidate on a list of the same name, he ran in the state elections in 2018 . Noi per l'Alto Adige was unable to win a mandate with 1.2% of the vote, and Bizzo subsequently left politics.
