Cultural and social initiatives

Social commitment

Opening up to the community, creating bonds and sharing
SIAD is committed to protecting and enhancing the environmental and cultural heritage, and promotes various social and cultural initiatives to give back value to the local community.

Social and cultural projects

SIAD has always acted with the aim of protecting and enhancing social and cultural heritage, promoting a collaborative relationship with institutions and the community to support the economic, social and civil growth and development of the local area.

Support for the Scientific World

The SIAD Group has always supported the scientific world through scholarships and outreach projects for institutions and hospitals. By making the best technologies and advanced skills available to Italian scientific research, we confirm our ongoing collaborative relationship with institutions and the community.

BergamoScienza

BergamoScienza is a science festival that aims to bring science to the public, making it accessible to everyone, especially young people and schools.

The Festival offers numerous free events with the participation of leading figures from the world of research and innovation. To date, the Festival has involved around forty Nobel Prize winners and more than 1,700 researchers, who have taken turns on stage.

The SIAD Group and SIAD Fondazione Sestini have been supporting BergamoScienza as partners for several years. As part of the programme of events, SIAD organises its own educational workshop entitled ‘Full throttle! Discover the world of technical gases’, which uses experiments and interactive games to teach primary and secondary school children about gases and their properties.

More than 1,000 students take part in the workshops every year.

Support for artistic heritage

The various activities carried out by SIAD aim to protect and safeguard social and cultural heritage, as well as to promote an ongoing and collaborative relationship with institutions and the community in order to support them in their social, civil and economic growth and development.

The SIAD Group is a partner of the Donizetti Theatre Foundation, Bergamo's renowned traditional theatre, named after the famous local composer Gaetano Donizetti.

This prestigious venue, which represents excellence in the Italian cultural landscape and is committed to promoting musical and theatrical arts, is home to the Donizetti Opera Festival and Bergamo Jazz, and hosts a significant season of plays and concerts.

SIAD Group's support for the Foundation is an investment in the cultural future of the community. This collaboration further strengthens the bond with the local area, promoting social well-being through greater access to culture, education in the arts and the preservation of artistic heritage.

The FAI's mission is to promote and protect Italian culture, nature, art, history and traditions. The SIAD Group is a Corporate Golden Donor. This is a forward-looking and responsible choice, a concrete gesture that adds value to the SIAD Group's Corporate Social Responsibility. Sharing with the FAI, and with other companies, the project to protect and enhance Italy's heritage is not only a choice of social responsibility but also represents an opportunity for training, cultural growth and networking.

Art, culture and landscape are important resources and provide the ideal setting for sharing valuable experiences. In 2021, Palazzo Moroni, a historic building in Bergamo's Upper Town, was opened to the public, thanks in part to SIAD's contribution to the restoration work.
