Marconi Award for Creativity

The Award is ideally connected to the “Guglielmo Marconi” International Award of Painting, Sculpture and Electronic Art, whose inheritance it carries on, by extending its focus on non artistic fields.

Created by the Marconi Institute for Creativity – Guglielmo Marconi Foundation, it benefits from the patronage of the University of Bologna and the Rotary Club – District 2072.

The award ceremony takes place on the annual occasion of the Marcony Day.

Marconi was the creator of the present day civilization of the radio. All of those who, with spirit of initiative and perseverance, have brought us to the present stage of development have built on the foundations laid by Marconi. Everyone considered him the tutelary genius of their work.
