Giulio Properzi, the president of Italy’s Continuus-Properzi S.p.A., has added to his long list of accomplishments in the wire and cable industry by being named a co-winner of the WAI’s 2008 Donnellan Memorial Award.
While Giulio Properzi has achieved much success for Continuus S.p.A., which has installed some 200 production lines worldwide for copper and aluminium rod for electrical cables, his nomination for the Donnellan award stems from his contribution to the WAI. A member of the Association’s board of directors as well as Italy’s ACIMAF, he was cited by several supporters of his nomination for his organizing skills.
Properzi was cited as a key to the success of both the first Italian Technical Conference in 1981 and a second one in Stresa, Italy, in 1997. He was instrumental in making it possible for WAI to return to Stresa in 2003, working with ACIMAF, IWMA and CET to put on a joint technical conference. That basis led to further joint efforts and helped foster closer relationships between the organizations.
Properzi’s support went beyond technical, including garnering much-needed support from ACIMAF for WAI’s Interwire events.
