"Italy needs young talents able to make the most of the skills and knowledge gained at school to turn them into actions, which render our country more modern and suitable to encourage our innate creativity, on the one hand, and more welcoming and careful to social issues and integration, on the other hand” stated Gabriele Labombarda, Partner and IBC Director at Bernoni Grant Thornton, which awarded a scholarship to Tommaso Broggian, a student of the high school “Da Vinci-Pascoli” in Gallarate (Varese).
The project “I Fuoriclasse della Scuola” helps young students promote their ideas and nurture their interests and it is great to see how their dreams and ambitions can come true.
