The splendid setting of the Festival Hall of the Campione d’Italia Casino hosted the 2024 Grand Gala Christmas Awards last night. In the presence of authorities and sponsors of the Club, the host couple composed of Eva Gini and Mino Taveri invited the winners of the prizes that the company created to pay homage to the protagonists of the sporting and social world of Como.
The “Person of the Year” went to Confindustria Como, in the figure of its president Gianluca Brenna, for the attention shown to the development of the territory.
The winners with nominations were Nicola Brienza, who won the “Basket Award” beating Riccardo Chinellato and Sofia Frustaci. The “Sport Award” went to Como 1907, who overcame competition from Gabriel Soares and Andrea Colombo. While the “Sport with social purposes Award” was awarded to the Gli Azzurrini Academy project, with the other two awards in the same category going to Sport Abilty and Tennis Como.
Also on stage were Beppe Bosa, awarded for his career in white and blue, and the winners of the two special prizes: Panathlon Como and Il Gabbiano di Cantù.
Before the final dinner, the club also wanted to pay homage to Enzo Giani, the historic doctor of the blue and whites who passed away at the beginning of the year, by making the first donation for the scholarship established in his memory.
