IMEX Corporate Meeting 2025 – Identity and the Power of Change

Meeting aziendale Imex 2025

After several years without a structured moment of discussion, IMEX gathered its people around the same table once again for a day dedicated to dialogue, sharing, and growth. The last corporate meeting dated back to 2019: meeting again today, in a context that has profoundly changed, carried an even deeper meaning.

The event — “Identity and the Power of Change” — was an opportunity to reflect on the company’s present and future outlook, highlighting the value of collaboration among the people who contribute every day to the development of our sector.

A conversation rooted in identity


The meeting took place at the company headquarters — a deliberate choice that placed the value of daily work and IMEX’s identity at the centre. The morning was dedicated to internal discussion, with the participation of team members involved in the company’s production, commercial, and organizational processes.

Participants included Pietro Gamba of Zanardi in Brembilla, a long-standing partner in the supply of oak semi-finished products; commercial representatives Francesco Alberto and Hans Esser; and management engineer Ersilio Lodetti, currently active at ML Engraving in Onore.

Thanks to their presence and contributions, it was possible to explore corporate, geopolitical, and economic macro-topics, fostering a dynamic and constructive dialogue that generated insights and practical tools for understanding change with greater awareness.

External perspectives that broaden the horizon

The afternoon further enriched the day through contributions from external professionals, selected for the relevance of their expertise within the supply chain. Discussions covered wood as a raw material with Piero Paganoni of Paganoni Legnami, Bergamo; paints and finishing processes with Marco and Marcello Bassis of Max Color Vernici, Castelli Calepio; production technologies with engineer Pier Vittore Turri; and communication and digital strategy with Stefano Festini Mira of Pixeljump, Milan.


These contributions allowed the team to delve into key themes for the company’s growth, offering new perspectives on market evolution and encouraging broader reflection on the role of innovation within the wood supply chain.

A moment of sharing that becomes vision


The meeting was not just a moment of alignment, but a meaningful step in IMEX’s growth journey: a space where identity is strengthened, dialogue generates value, and change becomes a concrete resource.

It was a valuable day, offering the opportunity to observe the sector’s evolution up close, engage openly with current challenges, and build a shared vision capable of guiding future decisions. A significant step that strengthens partnerships, enhances the contribution of individuals, and renews the desire to grow in a conscious and collaborative way.

The event concluded with an informal dinner — a relaxed and friendly moment that allowed participants to strengthen relationships and reinforce team spirit. The meeting left behind enthusiasm, new ideas, and a renewed shared energy… and we can’t wait to organise the next one!
