In the late afternoon of July 9, Ducati proudly hosted the delegation of G7 Ministers, currently in Bologna for the Ministerial Meeting dedicated to Science and Technology. The group of Ministers/Heads of Delegation followed by their respective delegations, visited the Borgo Panigale plant welcomed by the Ducati Board of Management and accompanied along the way by the CEO Claudio Domenicali and the Minister of University and Research, Anna Maria Bernini.
The visit began at the heart of the company, the Ducati Museum, custodian of the brand’s almost century-old history. Afterwards, the Bologna-based company also opened the doors of its Style Center for this special visit, the place where Ducati motorcycles come to life, transforming from an idea into true works of art. The tour then concluded inside the Finishing and Aesthetic Approval building; inaugurated at the end of 2022, this space is where the last phase of the production cycle takes place, consisting of the final dressing of the motorcycle, created by Ducati with a tailored approach.
Claudio Domenicali, Ducati CEO, said: “Welcoming the G7 delegation for Science and Technology as the only company in the entire Region is a great honor and makes us truly proud. This visit repays Ducati’s commitment to promoting technological excellence and Italian identity through its research and development work and its motorcycles. It is also a significant recognition for the Company and for the entire Motor Valley, demonstrating the value brought to the field of technology and science”.
The visit of the ministers who will participate in the Science and Technology Ministerial Meeting was an opportunity for Ducati management to talk about, in addition to the almost century-old history of the brand, the company’s development programs, which include investment projects in new products and in the infrastructure of Borgo Panigale.
