Milan, 15 March 2020 - Pirelli wishes to express its deep condolences for the passing of Vittorio Gregotti, one of country’s greatest architects. “With the loss of Vittorio Gregotti – said Marco Tronchetti Provera, Pirelli Executive Vice Chairman and CEO - we have lost one of the great protagonists of twentieth century architecture, whose contributions changed the face of Milan, raising it to the international level. Among other things, he was responsible for the design and regeneration of the Bicocca area in Milan and Pirelli’s headquarters, a leading example of industrial conversion. My warmest thoughts go to his family.”
