In 1964, upon the death of Angelo Pelliconi, the leadership of the company passed on to his wife Adalgisa Costa, an energetic and tenacious woman, supported by her son-in-law Franco Gnudi. The values and talents of female figures have always helped shape the character of Pelliconi, as is also demonstrated by the figure of Claudia Gnudi, Angelo Pelliconi's granddaughter and wife of Marco Checchi, the current CEO, who joined Pelliconi in 1985.
These women have always been a part of the company's history.
This new generation of young people, passionate about technology and the future, has brought a small, big revolution to the company: Claudia and Marco invest their energy in giving the business an international scope, accelerating the modernization of instrumentation and the implementation of increasingly innovative procedures. This vision, which has been embodied in continuous investment programs, has led Pelliconi to export 95 percent of its production to more than 100 countries around the world. In 2011, Marco Checchi founded the Angelo Pelliconi Laboratory (LAP) “Università for the creation of value”, a container of educational opportunities according to an interdisciplinary and continuing education perspective.
