Paola Ridolfi and Giacomo Cavenaghi are the fourth generation to join Giovanni Cavenaghi and Carlo Ridolfi at the helm of the company. She is 40 years old, with a degree in Biological Sciences and then in Economics, four years at PwC Advisory, a year in management control at Humanitas, and a Master’s in Project Management from the Politecnico: she joined C&R in 2017 as a Project Manager in the production and technical sectors. He, aged 28, has a background in economics and management, a Master’s in Digital Innovation from MIP, and three years as a consultant at Nextea on Digital Transformation projects: he joined the family business in 2024, holding roles in administration, human resources and sales.
Both joined C&R after building their careers elsewhere, with the aim of “maintaining and ensuring the prosperity of a historic company in increasingly challenging times within a profoundly changed market context”.
