Posted by Riccardo Paterni on 05/06/2026

Every year, the Motor Valley Fest represents one of the most significant moments to reflect on the future of automotive, mobility, and industrial innovation. RPM Italia participated in the 2026 edition, confirming its role within the Motor Valley ecosystem.

Leadership, Well-Being, and Growth: AWA's Perspective

As part of the festival's initiatives, Riccardo Paterni spoke on behalf of AWA – the Automotive Women Association, participating in the roundtable discussion "Well Being – The Next Step of Leadership – Employee Satisfaction & Work Psychology."

This discussion brought together companies and professionals from diverse regions and industries to address one of the most crucial issues for organizational competitiveness: the relationship between people's well-being, professional growth, and the ability to innovate.

In his speech, Riccardo shared AWA's perspective, which is based on concrete action and the implementation of projects that foster collaboration between women and men within the automotive sector. This approach aims to create real and lasting change through discussion, ongoing training, and the valorization of diverse skills.

Particular attention was paid to the value of the connection between AWA and RPM Italia. This bond demonstrates how collaborative ecosystems can become growth accelerators, fostering the emergence of initiatives capable of generating impact for the entire sector.

The Pit Stop Experience conquers the Motor Valley Fest audience

The Motor Valley Fest was also an opportunity to bring the public to the center of the action thanks to the new edition of the Pit Stop Experience, promoted by AWA together with DSV – Global Transport and Logistics.

For the entire duration of the event, visitors were able to experience first-hand the experience of a real racing tire change, putting themselves to the test with professional tools and experiencing the precision, speed and teamwork required in motorsport.

An initiative made possible thanks to the collaboration with DSV, Dino Paoli and Giordano Motorsport, which transformed Piazza Libertà into a meeting point between passion, technology and high performance culture.

The Dino Paoli instruments, a global point of reference for professional motorsport, were the protagonists of the experience, allowing participants to concretely approach one of the symbolic activities of the world of competitions.

Motorsport as a Model for Innovation

Participation in the 2026 Motor Valley Fest once again confirmed that motorsport represents much more than an industrial sector: it is a cultural model based on collaboration, speed of execution, continuous improvement, and the ability to transform challenges into opportunities.

Values ​​that RPM Italia continues to promote every day through its network, connecting companies, professionals, and organizations that share the same vision of growth.
