Interview to Angelo Luigi Marchetti, CEO of Marlegno
What does “entrepreneurship” mean to you?
Entrepreneurship is that set of characteristics that lead us to embark on a journey of growth and development in favor of a business but in a symbiotic personal way. Characteristics that always push us to go further and do better.
What is the biggest experience or lesson gained on your growth journey so far?
The lesson of “We”. In doing business, it is more important than ever to find fellow travelers with an innate entrepreneurship, willingness to put themselves out there, to take responsibility, because they not only allow us to grow together, but they also accelerate opportunities.
How is your company acting as a game changer in the landscape?
Marlegno operates in the wood building sector with a special focus in the off-site construction of two-dimensional elements and three-dimensional modules fully assembled in the factory, with a strong reduction in construction time and greater safety and quality of the built. Marlegno has a department that designs, in BIM logic, all processes from initial planning via a life-cycle thinking approach, to after-sales maintenance and end-of-life management.
What Should Your Life Motto Be?
The power of a business is measured by its ability to create continuous innovation; power is nothing without control.
ELITE: the European network of private SMEs which accelerates the process to access private and public capital markets. Why it can be the game changing opportunity companies should consider?
For us Elite represented a turning point that allowed us to compare ourselves with other realities that, although with different sizes, markets and maturity of approach, wanted to understand how they could accelerate their path of growth and development by having as benchmarks the champion companies and those processes and actions that underlie their success, that is, their drivers. Elite is a catalyst for these “energies” and makes them available to companies that are ready to seize market opportunities.
