Invited by UniCredit, IREM CEO Giovanni Musso attended the ceremony at the University of Palermo where Andrea Orcel, CEO of UniCredit Group and Chairman of UniCredit Foundation, was awarded an Honorary Master's Degree in Economics and Finance. The event represented an important institutional occasion and an opportunity to reflect on the themes of leadership, competitiveness, and the role of finance in supporting the growth of businesses and local economies.

IREM's participation also reflects the long-standing relationship the company has built over the years with UniCredit, a trusted financial partner that has supported IREM's growth and international expansion, contributing to the successful delivery of several major industrial projects abroad.

This partnership is founded on mutual trust, strategic vision, and a shared commitment to sustainable growth, and has been further strengthened over time by the professional esteem between the two Chief Executive Officers. For IREM, fostering dialogue between industry, the banking sector, and academia is essential to promoting investment, innovation, and competitiveness, creating the conditions needed to successfully address the challenges of international markets.
