ROME–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Keo World, a leading force in digital financial solutions, has been awarded the prestigious America Innovation Award by the Italy USA Foundation. The honor celebrates Keo’s impact in driving forward innovation and entrepreneurship across borders.
Each year, the Italy USA Foundation selects 300 outstanding entrepreneurial talents to receive the award, recognizing the most promising startups and SMEs shaping the future. Keo joins this distinguished group as a symbol of technological progress and commitment to empowering businesses in the evolving global economy.
“Individuals like myself, a Florentine, our CEO Paolo Fidanza, a Roman, and our Chief Risk Officer Giovanni Calvi, from Milan, all maintain strong roots and lasting ties with our country of origin,” said Alessandro Ciacchini, Italia Managing director, who accepted the award at a ceremony held at the Italian Parliament in Rome. “This recognition reaffirms our mission to create meaningful, scalable solutions that unlock growth for businesses around the world: true, sustainable progress stems from transnational thinking — from the sharing of minds and ideas across cultures and beyond borders.”
The Italy USA Foundation is an influential nonprofit that promotes transatlantic dialogue and economic cooperation. The Foundation is led by Corrado Maria Daclon, an esteemed professor and international figure with deep ties to diplomacy and academia. His leadership lends significant weight to the Foundation’s efforts to bridge innovation between Italy and the United States.
“As an Italian, I am truly honored to be recognized in my home country by an organization whose values align so closely with mine and those of our company,” said Paolo Fidanza, CEO of Keo World.
Receiving the America Innovation Award positions Keo on a broader global stage, opening new doors for strategic partnerships and international investment. It also reinforces Keo’s role as a disruptor in the fintech space.
