Omet awards scholarships to employees' children

Antonio Bartesaghi, CEO of the Omet Group, has presented the first scholarships for children of Omet and O-PAC employees who have distinguished themselves during study at High Schools or Universities.

‘We wanted to establish a scholarship for the children of our employees who have achieved good results in studies with the aim of rewarding the hard work, dedication and the ability to cope with difficulties. We hope that the prize will act as a stimulus to ensure that this commitment is prolonged in the future,’ said Bartesaghi.

'We all know that the path to business growth depends on the ability to consistently achieve the best results with the support of committed staff, but also with the passion, dedication and effort of all. The same commitment we have recognized and valued in these children with the hope that this might contribute to their future success.’

Omet Scholarships are one example of the social responsibility initiatives the company pursues in Lecco and the surrounding regions. In addition Omet partners with universities in Lombardy - in particular Milan Polytechnic and the Italian Institute of Technology – and offers internships to students. Sports sponsorships include collaboration with the Badoni Foundation that works for the improvement of the relationship between schools and companies, and donations for the upgrade of the equipment at Lecco technical schools.
