From Finmeccanica to Leonardo: a new brand that defines the change of the company and its transformation from a financial holding company to an operational, integrated and innovative industrial entity.
Chosen for its strong evocative significance, the new name is inspired by Leonardo da Vinci, a universally recognised symbol of creativity and innovation.
Leonardo is a global high-tech company and one of the key players in the Aerospace, Defence and Security sectors. Headquartered in Italy, the company employs more than 47,000 employees worldwide.
Leonardo has offices and industrial plants across 15 countries, with a strong presence in Italy, the United Kingdom, the United States and Poland, and strategic partnerships in the most important high potential international markets.
A HISTORY OF SUCCESS, A FUTURE IN EXCELLENCE.
28 April 2016: the Shareholders' Meeting approves Finmeccanica’s new name. From now on, it will be Leonardo - Società per Azioni. After sixty-eight years of history, the brand name that has identified the high technology industry in our country, from the post-war period to the present time is renewed in the very modern name of Leonardo da Vinci, innovator in his times and recognised as universal symbol of genius and creativity applied to all fields of inquiry.
The name change is the logical conclusion of a path of profound renewal that got its start with the transformation of 1 January 2016 – from financial holding to One Company, a single industrial company, integrated and concentrated on the key sectors of aerospace, defence and security.
Leonardo thus takes the baton of an important industrial development, which started even before Finmeccanica, with the goal of representing worldwide the new image of a global and technologically advanced company.
