Giulio Einaudi (Italian pronunciation: [ˈdʒuljo eiˈnaudi]) (January 2, 1912 – April 5, 1999) was an Italian publisher. He was born in Dogliani (Province of Cuneo), the son of Luigi Einaudi, future president of the Italian Republic, and his wife Ida.

He attended the Massimo d'Azeglio liceo classico, and became a student of anti-fascist Augusto Monti.

On November 15, 1933 he founded publishing house Giulio Einaudi Editore, located on the third floor of Via Arcivescovado 7 in Turin (the same building that had hosted Antonio Gramsci's Ordine Nuovo). After working 64 years in the publishing business, he retired on September 4, 1997, aged 85, and died at age 87.

His son is the pianist and composer Ludovico Einaudi.
