On Friday, September 16th, Foligno dressed in blue: the blue of UMBRAGROUP. On the occasion of its 50th Anniversary, a day of events was organized right in the center of the Baroque town, starting from the enchanting setting of Palazzo Trinci.
The opening of this day of festivities was attended by the Region’s and town’s top officials, UMBRAGROUP’s leadership, and the Group’s strategic customers, who came from all over the world to celebrate the 50 years of history of one of the world’s major players in the industrial, aeronautics, and defense market.
It was a day dedicated to milestones, successes, and future challenges, passing from the 15th-century Palazzo Trinci to UMBRAGROUP’s headquarters at 1 Via Valter Baldaccini. Here, the watchwords were once again “innovation” and “sustainability”: topics of great importance at this time in history, and ones absolutely essential to UMBRAGROUP’s mission and vision.
The Group’s most important innovations were showcased, focusing on both the newest market demands and the environmental needs connected with the sustainability of products and processes. In addition, a tour of the production plant completed the afternoon at the parent company, where the guests were able to view first-hand the capabilities, products, and the supports on which they are installed.
At the end of the intense day of business, to crown the celebration for the Group’s half century, a closing event of inspiration and involvement for all the guests was held in perfect UMBRAGROUP style at one of the most impressive historic sites in Foligno: the Auditorium of Santa Caterina.
Fifty years as seen through the eyes of our most important customers and described by their words: an agile Partner mindful of the needs emerging from change: a word dear to UMBRAGROUP, which has driven the Group’s work for half a century. Changes that become possible only with constant investments in the research and development of new technologies, but also thanks to the creation of a great team, driven by cohesion and motivation, toward a single, great goal.
“These 50 years represent not only a point of arrival, but above all a new beginning,” says Reno Ortolani, Chairman of the UMBRAGROUP Board of Directors. “We’re constantly oriented toward the future, while continuing to reach back to our past, to our history, remaining well rooted in our clear, non-negotiable values, but with a strong vision of the future for our business.”
“For us, innovating means growing with the aim of creating value for all our stakeholders: customers, the Group, and the larger community,” adds Matteo Notarangelo, UMBRAGROUP’s CEO, “as we continue to pursue higher and higher levels of quality and more advanced technologies in our work, not only for our customers, but also to be able to leave a legacy of a better tomorrow.”
