The Presidency of the Council of Ministers, with a decree dated 7 July 2022, appointed the professor Gian Mario Verona, rector of the Bocconi University of Milan, as the new chairman of the Supervisory Board of the Human Technopole Foundation.
In its new composition, the Supervisory Board of the Foundation includes as new members Serena Sileoni, Frances Pasinelli, Joseph Hippolytus e Laura French which are added to the already named Giovanna Iannantuoni, Massimo Inguscio, Biagio Mazzotta, Maria Grazia Roncarolo, Gianluca Vago and Alessandro Vespignani and to the reconfirmed Marcella Panucci.
“I am very honored to be able to contribute to the development of Human Technopole in the coming years,” he said Gian Mario Verona in addition to the customary thanks for the appointment just received. “The impact of our frontier research to contribute to personalized and preventive medicine will continue to grow also thanks to collaborations with other scientific realities in an open science perspective. Wanting to use a metaphor, in the next few years we will move from the start-up phase of the startup to the scale-up phase. The challenge I face, as an innovation scholar, is extremely fascinating.”
“I am pleased to learn that Professor Gianmario Verona has been nominated as President of Human Technopole – declared the Vice President of Assolombarda, Sergio Dompé -. It is an authoritative and internationally recognized profile. In his three consecutive terms as Rector of 'Bocconi', he consolidated the University's position among the top university centers in the world. I confirm, right from the start, my personal willingness and that of the whole Association to collaborate with Professor Verona on the topics of innovation and scientific research, considered by Assolombarda as central levers for the development of our territory”.
