Renato Brunetta (Venice, May 15, 1950) is an Italian economist and politician and, as of May 2008, a minister in the Berlusconi government.
He served from 2008 to 16 November 2011 the office of the Minister for Public Administration and Innovation.
Son of an Hawker and the youngest of three brothers, Renato Brunetta grew up in Venice. He says that as a boy he cultivated his own initiative classical studies with excellent results, despite a social gap should seem to differentiate it from the companions of Liceo Foscarini.
He is a former member of the Italian Socialist Party, Member of the European Parliament for the North-East from 2004 to 2009 with the Forza Italia, part of the European People's Party, and vice-chair of the European Parliament's Committee on Industry, Research and Energy.
