The infrastructure of the future is not built solely on technical expertise. It is built on new perspectives.

To mark International Women in Engineering Day, we share the thoughts of Elena Montemurro, Head of Corporate Quality at Impresa Pizzarotti, Coordinator of the Steering Committee for Gender Equality and a key figure in the ‘Ingenio al Femminile’ campaign.

“To young female engineers, I say: embark on this journey with courage and vision, investing in your own development and contributing to change. A female perspective can offer a distinctive contribution, capable of challenging and renewing established market models. It is crucial for building a more sustainable, equitable and innovative future.”

The transformations currently taking place in the construction industry require innovation, sustainability and the ability to look beyond established models. This is why women’s contribution to engineering is an increasingly strategic factor for the sector’s future.

As Ambassadors of the Ingenio al Femminile Award, we reaffirm our commitment to promoting a culture that recognises and values merit, creating opportunities for the professional women who are currently helping to reshape the engineering landscape.

Because building the future means, first and foremost, expanding the scope of possibilities.
