2022 - Leonardo da Vinci Prize awarded to Pedrollo Group

Framed in Venice’s splendour, the eleventh Leonardo da Vinci award was assigned to Gruppo Pedrollo. Luigi Brugnaro, mayor of Venice, presented the award to Giulio Pedrollo, the Group’s Managing Director.  “This day has a particularly deep meaning for me and my family. The Leonardo da Vinci Award is, in fact, the first international recognition awarded to Gruppo Pedrollo. Although in the past the single companies belonging to the Group have received numerous awards, today, thanks also to the affirmation of our strategy of internal growth and external add-ons, we are living an important page in our history which gratifies the willfulness of family-run companies in the desire to transmit their heritage and their values to future generations”, affirms Giulio Pedrollo. In fact, the prestigious Leonardo da Vinci award aims at enhancing the exceptional ability of family enterprises to transmit their heritage and their values to future generations. “Principles such as attachment to the local territory, dedication to work, the constant research into innovation, the never-ending focus on quality, growing investment in sustainability animate our task every single day as a socially responsible company, as is our path towards internationalisation. The sharing of these principles translates into a generational pact which goes beyond simple economic sustainability. Family-run companies represent the solid core of the Italian economy. We have a special resilience. Of course, at times the change from one generation to another may become an issue, but if properly prepared, it transforms into an extraordinary resource”, continues Giulio Pedrollo.
