ABOUT US
Born to inspire
The PrimiDieci Society is a collective of world leading personalities. It was born out of a strong desire to forge connections between the most distinguished personalities with young talented italians around the globe. The Society is committed to the development of an inspired, illuminated, and merit-based future leadership, while promoting the outstanding value of cultural diversity as a source of extraordinary talent, creativity, entrepreneurship, and genius. Established in New York in 2011 by Italian journalist and biographer Riccardo Lo Faro, the PrimiDieci Society relies on its International Selection Committee to nominate 10 Awards recipients in each country. From culture to science, design to business, public service to the media, the arts, entertainment and more, the recipients span from great authorities and role models to young, bright future leaders.
Spreading the word out.
We are constantly dedicated to exploring amongst those who have achieved remarkable success in their career, those who are the best examples of having overcome obstacles and difficulties and are today delivering the utmost excellence to the community. We are committed to spreading out their fascinating stories nationally and internationally so that their insights may influence those who merit them. A resolute commitment accomplished by a series of major initiatives over the year, such as the sensational Awards Galas and Summits in the US (New York and Los Angeles) and UK (London) - soon more countries, and the broadcasting of their past and current achievements via massive Press & Media campaigns, the circulation of the PrimiDieci books, e.books, and publications, selected public speeches, and the dissemination on social media. These and more valued privileges are reserved to our Awards recipients, Patron members of the Society: the comprehensive list of unique benefits is available upon request.
The ultimate purpose.
Highlighting distinguished people for their personal and professional outstanding achievements allows us to bring attention to our events where we are honored to assign grants for scientific research in the field of Metastatic Breast Cancer. This is precisely the ultimate purpose of our celebratory functions: help to break the silence and the misinformation around its devastating spread, raising worldwide awareness of the international community to the importance of funding extensive scientific research on this dreadful disease. At the PrimiDieci Society, we are proud to support the global battle against such a terrible and dooming cancer that strikes hard thousands of women around the world.
