SAY is a Gold Partner of Confartigianato Imprese Padova, on the occasion of the Association’s 80th anniversary

On 19 January 2026, a press conference was held at the Sala del Romanino in the Eremitani Civic Museum in Padua to present Confartigianato Imprese Padova’s concept for celebrating the association’s 80th anniversary: “80 years of courage to create, think and innovate”.

During the meeting, the historical and cultural value of craftsmanship was celebrated and a rich programme of initiatives was presented that will accompany the whole of 2026, transforming this important anniversary into a widespread and participatory narrative, capable of including territories, institutions, citizens and the enhancement of the craftsmanship fabric.

The presentation event was attended by representatives of the city’s institutions and cultural world: Andrea Colasio, Councillor for Culture of the Municipality of Padua, Gianluca Dall’Aglio, President of Confartigianato Imprese Padova, Valentina Giglio, Secretary General of the Association, and Francesca Veronese, Director of the Civic Museums of Padua.

SAY was involved in the development of a digital space dedicated entirely to the celebration and related cultural and associative initiatives. A project aimed at creating a coherent narrative and communicative experience, capable of celebrating the association’s history and, at the same time, projecting it into the future, promoting the community, innovation and the fundamental role of craftsmanship in the area.

SAY is also a Gold Partner of the initiatives linked to this important milestone. The agency actively supports ROADSHOW 30, a travelling event scheduled from 13 April to 9 July 2026, which will involve various organisations in the city of Padua, with one of the events on the calendar being hosted at our Padua office.

“We are proud to be alongside Confartigianato Padova at such an important moment in the life of the association. It is a historic milestone and, at the same time, an important moment of reflection with an eye to the future,” comments Nicola Bruno, Managing Partner of SAY S.p.A. “We see this 80th anniversary – and the initiatives organised by Confartigianato – as an opportunity to strengthen dialogue and collaboration between the worlds of craftsmanship and communication, with a focus on the common values that unite us.”
