” From 2007 until today there have been many facts in my personal experience in ADI, from student to the first ADI meetings in Milan, the beginning of the adventure and the foundation of ADI Liguria with Simona Finessi, Enrico Gollo, Nicoletta Negro , Paolo Tonelli and many other friends and colleagues from my region. The Ligurian experience with projects, events, promotion and awareness activities led me to arrive in Ningbo in China with Luisa Bocchietto past President proposal and then in Shanghai with the reconfirmation of President Luciano Galimberti. To continue to live the association, to carry values, to witness the Italian experience of design and continue to actively participate in the international development of ADI and Compasso d ‘Oro Award, makes me very proud and honored to be able to carry on this wonderful challenge. Thank you for these 10 years for all those who have believed in me. Davide Conti “
