The first edition of the Joaquín Navarro-Valls International Award for Leadership and Benevolence was bestowed upon Brunello Cucinelli, a sensitive and generous man, a son of his land, an entrepreneur who transforms his moral strength into an inexhaustible and constant desire to seek beauty for the benefit of others.

With gentleness and integrity, he builds work environments imbued with projects of benevolence rooted in human sustainability and deep respect for the human person.
