Piaggio at stock market highs, trailing Vespa, Aprilia and Moto Guzzi, and two sons, Matteo and Michele, already fully embedded at the top of the Pontedera-based group, able to immediately take over delegated authority to lead the holding company. This is the legacy left by Roberto Colaninno, the entrepreneur who died at age 80 on August 19. Colaninno served as chairman and CEO of Piaggio and was chairman of Immsi, the family holding company. At the helm of the group now are the vice chairmen of Immsi and Piaggio, respectively lawyer Daniele Discepolo, a longtime friend of the Mantuan entrepreneur, and Matteo Colaninno, who have assumed the powers of interim chairmen. Thereafter, Matteo is expected to assume the role of Executive Chairman of both Immsi and Piaggio, and Michele is expected to become CEO of Piaggio. In the absence of a will, Roberto Colaninno's shares will be divided according to inheritance rules, and the estate will be split equally between his wife and children. The new snapshot of the Omniaholding safe will thus see the three family members each holding 33 percent of the capital. On the board, Michele will continue to be in charge of the US-based Piaggio Fast Forward, Piaggio's research center and robotics heartland. It is from Boston that the group's innovation starts.
