It is with great pleasure that we announce Dr. Valerio Locatelli, co-founder of M&L Consulting Group and Managing Partner of Studio Locatelli Sani Ravani & Associati, has been appointed as a full member of the Scientific Committee of the Industria Felix Award by Il Sole 24 Ore for the year 2024. In response to his appointment, Dr. Locatelli remarked: "This prestigious role signifies an opportunity to experience the Industria Felix Award from a different perspective, examining the best Italian companies not only from a financial standpoint but also through the lens of technological innovation, sustainability, and local integration. Being part of the Scientific Committee of the Industria Felix Award embodies what I believe to be the new mission of Chartered Accountants, who increasingly innovate and transform themselves, assuming the role of broad-spectrum consultants, not only in the realm of ordinary corporate assistance but also in the context of extraordinary transactions. Lastly, this appointment translates into an opportunity to further pursue, alongside M&L Consulting Group, my commitment to continuous exploration, a commitment already upheld within the professional sphere through the Department of Studies, Research, and Publications of Studio Locatelli Sani Ravani & Associati, which indeed constitutes one of the indispensable and foundational elements for the activity of every advisor."
