Alberto, Paolo and Andrea Chiesi are the National winners of the EY “ L’Imprenditore dell’Anno 2015” Award.

“This Award, received in the year in which we celebrate the 80thanniversary of our company, makes us very proud - said Alberto Chiesi – and has for us a double meaning: It is an ulterior confirmation that we are on the right track, despite of the changes and challenges that the company has had to deal with up until now and that our collaborators are people of value.” Furthermore, he added: “ Teamwork is part of our modus operandi and thus part of our success and it is with our team that we want to share this recognition.”
Besides this important Award, Alberto, Paolo and Andrea Chiesi have also received the recognition in the “Healthcare & Life Sciences” category.
