SUMMARY:Innovation\, Wealth and Investment: Manufacturing from the Perspective of Entrepreneurs and Investors
DESCRIPTION:An event organised by EIT Manufacturing South and Banca Investis\, bringing together entrepreneurs\, business-owning families and investors to explore a shared question from different perspectives: how can the knowledge capital that enables a manufacturing company to remain competitive over time be identified\, measured and transferred? \n\n\n\nIn a market shaped by continuous transformation\, geopolitical tensions\, technological evolution and new business models\, a company’s most valuable asset often lies in its know-how: the combination of skills\, relationships and processes built over generations. Innovators and investors view this knowledge capital with the same objective\, albeit from different perspectives: to recognise its value\, reduce the risk of its loss\, and enable it to drive growth. \n\n\n\nThe discussion will focus on three key themes: \n\n\n\nThe complementarity of technology portfolios as an investment criterion \n\n\n\nInvestment\, acquisition and merger transactions are never purely financial. Their success increasingly depends on the ability to integrate processes\, data\, expertise and technology platforms. Investing in manufacturing innovation requires a combined view of technologies to understand where portfolios complement each other and where they can create value for investors. \n\n\n\nThe event brings together EIT Manufacturing South’s industrial and innovation perspectives with Banca Investis’ expertise in wealth management\, corporate finance\, and advisory services for entrepreneurs and business-owning families. Together\, they will provide participants with practical tools to view their know-how as an asset to be valued\, measured and transferred. \n\n\n\nPatents as a strategic and wealth asset \n\n\n\nWhat is not documented\, measured and properly assessed risks being lost over time. A manufacturing company’s patent portfolio is not only a means of protecting intellectual property\, but also a wealth asset that can be invested in\, licensed and financially valued—one of the most tangible ways to make a competitive advantage that is often tacit\, both measurable and defensible. \n\n\n\nSuccession as a process of innovation \n\n\n\nGenerational succession is not simply a matter of inheritance: it is an opportunity to recognise and strengthen family and corporate know-how\, or to make it available to new investors. The discussion will explore how to prepare both the company and the knowledge capital that underpins it for a leadership transition that can also serve as an opportunity for renewed innovation. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeakers\n\n\n\n\n\n\nStefano Gallinaro+\n\n\n\n\nStefano Gallinaro is Head of Advisory and Commercial Services at EIT Manufacturing South. \n\n\n\nHe has ten years of experience in technological innovation\, deep-tech start-ups\, digital transformation and technology transfer\, developing expertise at the intersection of business\, research and the market. \n\n\n\nIn his role at EIT Manufacturing South\, he supports companies and innovators in developing Open Innovation strategies and identifying opportunities for innovation and collaboration. He works with businesses to define projects and access services and funding opportunities\, fostering connections with startups\, universities\, research centres and other stakeholders within the innovation ecosystem. \n\n\n\nDrawing on his experience in innovation and collaborative project development\, he helps turn industrial needs and challenges into concrete opportunities for business growth\, innovation\, and strategic development. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMarco Pelosi+\n\n\n\n\nMarco Pelosi is Head of Capital Markets and Alternative Assets at Banca Investis. \n\n\n\nHe began his career at Mediobanca in the Equity Capital Markets division before moving to London to join Citigroup\, where he served as Vice President\, Equity Capital Markets\, advising on capital markets transactions in both the Italian and international markets.
