Premio Tiepolo
Created in 1996 by the Italian Chamber of Commerce and Industry in Spain the Premio Tiepolo is an award conferred every year to an Italian and a Spanish personality which have particularly distinguished for their job related to the integration and development of the economic-trade relations between Italy and Spain. This award is delivered by a jury composed of Spanish journalist and from main Italian news correspondents located in Spain. The name of this prize comes from the Italian painter, Lorenzo Tiepolo, which spent much of his life in Madrid, where he completed several frescoes for the Royal Palace and died in 1770. The first edition of the Premio Tiepolo was celebrated in 1996, at the Italian Embassy in Madrid. In this occasion the winners were Cesare Romiti, President of Fiat Group and Isidoro Àlvares, President of Corte Inglès.
