The company is participating in the project promoted by Altagamma, in collaboration with the Ministry of Education and Merit, Adopt a School, to address the productive growth and strong internationalization of recent years, by enhancing professional figures in the area.On the occasion of World Youth Skills Day, celebrated on July 15, dedicated to promoting learning and skill acquisition, creating opportunities for young people around the world to develop the necessary abilities to face future challenges, Gessi demonstrates its proactivity towards initiatives that nurture young talents. Since mid-June, students training to become technical experts from a 4th-grade class at the Salvatore Lirelli Technical Institute in Borgosesia have been placed “on the job” in the company’s production departments - industrialization, mechanical processing, testing, and laboratory - for a total of 160 hours over 2 years.Gessi is one of the Altagamma brands that have joined the Adopt a School initiative this year to meet the needs of companies currently seeking manufacturing talents. Now in its third edition, the project, promoted by Altagamma in collaboration with the Ministry of Education and Merit, aims to enhance the training and manufacturing of excellent Made in Italy products, building a virtuous relationship between technical-professional schools and Italian luxury companies, which currently number thirty-threeThe agreement between schools and companies that train and seek manufacturing talents defines the number and characteristics of the classes involved, the coordinators and tutors, the specific content and activities, and the commitments of the school, the company, and the students. It is estimated that in the coming years, companies will need 346,000 technical-professional profiles, compared to 236,000 in 2019, and Gessi bears witness to the need to constantly identify new talents in craftsmanship. For the company, training and enhancing professional figures, to be nurtured locally, is of fundamental importance. Its productive growth and strong internationalization have triggered a relentless search for specializations that can ride and manage this evolution. The addition of over one hundred collaborators in the last year has brought Gessi to count over eight hundred employees in its workforce worldwideA technological and cultural hub in the Gessi parkGessi, the largest family-owned company in the Valsesia region and a leader in the lifestyle and wellness sector, continues to invest in the territory by relying on a business model based on excellence, sustainability, and the value of people, which has determined its success for years. Innovation and corporate culture are increasingly the watchwords of a company that has transformed its production and management model into a unique industry. The creation of a new 10,000 square meter technological and cultural hub within the park makes Gessi an example of excellence in both technological and digital innovation, as well as environmental sustainability and professional growth for its members. The new hub is primarily a laboratory where technology is combined with the mechanical processing of materials, a blend of human dimension and the highest technical expression in terms of equipment and machinery. The objective is not only productive but also educational, with the establishment of what has been defined as a true “talent garden.” The desire to grow and see increasingly trained and sought-after professional figures flourish requires a constant commitment to training and continuous exchange between school and work. The hub is equipped with classrooms that host students and researchers, facilitating an effective exchange of information and knowledge to continually raise the standard of professionalism. This ensures ongoing training that is in line with technological innovation, enabling global competitiveness. Casa Gessi Valsesia thus becomes increasingly the beating heart of the company, even in terms of training, as there is a firm belief in the importance of directly experiencing and understanding the production reality, dynamics, teams, and territory where Gessi is based.
