“Pollicione d’Oro” for Aldo Pozzoli.
Our founder, who passed in February 2023, was remembered in May 2024 by receiving the “Honourable Mention in Memory” of the Giuseppe Pellitteri 2024 Prize.
The award, now in its thirtieth year, brings together schools, businesses and cultural institutions from the Italian graphic world, rewarding the most deserving students together with the industrial and cultural excellence of the sector.
Barbara and Chiara Pozzoli received the iconic “Pollicione” designed by Armando Testa.
Aldo Pozzoli’s wife and daughter wanted to remember together the lifelong commitment of their husband and father in the graphic sector.
«This award to the memory of my father is unexpected but particularly welcome – said Chiara Pozzoli – The Salesian family, embodies the values of my father and those of Christians: the importance of the individual in its uniqueness and its enhancement through training and work».
«I invite the young people to believe deeply in courage and passion – said Barbara Pozzoli. Courage, passion and determination are in fact the qualities that have allowed Aldo to found his own business, tracing a path and showing an example of brilliant industriousness, rigor and loyalty, as an entrepreneur immersed in the present, but always projected into the future».
