“The great Basso family is what has always joined us and tied us up together.”
It is the synergy that has been created, the kind of understanding that goes beyond the simple working
collaboration that makes working together so special.
Luigi, Gianni, Filippo, Raffaele, Corrado are just some of the many faces and names priceless for us,
which have intertwined with each other writing the pages of our history, year after year.
Lives that still intertwine in the daily sharing of our own values and objectives, side by side. Or who
try to intertwine again, even if the work together has long ended, with dedications and anecdotes of
past memories to tell and write to each other.
