WHAT CAN WE CONCRETELY DO?

AN EXTENDED RESPONSIBLE APPROACH TO SOCIETY

We have always asked ourselves, "what can we concretely do to leave our best mark and infuse ideals in future generations, for a setting in which can live at our best?". Because of this, we have consistently encouraged, supported, and participated in numerous activities for the region and at the community level over the years, conscious that doing good for the environment, the local population, our clients, and our employees is the first step towards a sustainable and supportive society.

SOCIAL AND CIVIC ENGAGEMENT

Our promise is to assist and support actively
charitable endeavours and events, in order to
enhance the territory's progress and well-being.


SOME OF OUR INITIATIVES
- More than a Team

Our commitment to civic life encompasses a wide variety of activities, from participation in professional and industrial associations to career guidance initiatives and support for sports teams, philanthropic causes, and cultural institutions for safeguarding artistic and cultural heritage in the community.
Even when purchasing gifts or presents for collaborators (for example, on anniversaries such as Christmas) or visiting customers, AIC always chooses sustainable products or services that benefit the local community.

We place a special emphasis on supporting children and young people because, after all, they are our future. For example, we collaborate closely with local schools to help students find the right career path for them (for instance participating in career exploration days). However, helping children begins long before they consider their future careers. As a result, we support a number of local sports clubs and community projects. Some of these are here shown:



FUTURA. Economia x l'ambiente / Hiroshi Ishiguro

Thanks to the collaboration with the Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore, Piccola Industria Confindustria Brescia, and a selected group of other companies in the industry, we organized Hiroshi Ishiguro's speech ("Avatar and the Future Society") during the 2nd edition of FUTURA, the national expo on sustainability.
The professor is considered the leading figure worldwide in the field of artificial intelligence and a pioneer in the creation of humanoid robots.

Committed to bringing attention to the deeply pervasive and unsolved problem of violence against women.
