The Confindustria (Confederation of Italian Industry) association, which consists of around 500 member companies and represents the footwear industry at national level, has chosen the 53-year-old manager with a background in Pirelli, Telecom and Veronafiere.
A graduate in Law from the University of Parma, with a ‘Master certificate on the protection of industrial property’, he specialised in ‘Sustainable business model: creation and implementation of corporate sustainability models’ at the Ca’ Foscari Challenge school in Venice in collaboration with Ernst&Young.
He began his career at Pirelli where he worked at the Milan office and then from 2002 in Sao Paulo, Brazil, moving to TIM Brasil at the Rio de Janeiro office.
Returning to Telecom Italia in 2012, he joined the Veronafiere Group in 2013 as General Manager of Veronafiere Servizi S.p.A., before moving to the parent company Veronafiere S.p.A. as Director of Operations and from 2019 to date as Managing Director of Polo Fieristico Veronese S.p.A.
“I am embarking on my new path with enthusiasm – says Giorgio Possagno, the new General Manager of Assocalzaturifici and Managing Director of Anci Servizi – with the commitment as of now to strengthen the listening to all members, continue to grow and innovate internal services and products, keeping at the centre the mission of bringing even the smallest distances that there may be between the numerous production districts, with a view to strengthening the central role of Confindustria. I am certain that, on the strength of the professional skills of all the directors, management and employees, together we will be able to positively face the important challenges that await us”.
