M&D Group Honored with the Adriano Olivetti National Award

The 20th Anniversary of Teknopiscine at Masseria Pilano
It was an enchanting evening that celebrated not just a milestone, but an entire philosophy of beauty and passion. Teknopiscine celebrated its first 20 years at the stunning Masseria Pilano, transforming the event into an unforgettable multi-sensory experience.
Under the ancient stone arches, once a feeding trough, guests were greeted by an experiential exhibition dedicated to the five senses. This sensory journey invited everyone to touch, smell, listen, taste, and see, rediscovering emotions and sensations in an intimate and surprising way. Each station was a profound discovery, a deep immersion into the beauty that Teknopiscine has always been able to create.
The heart of the evening was on the main stage, where the charismatic television host Beppe Convertini served as the master of ceremonies. As a true ambassador of Italian beauty, Convertini captivated the audience with stories from his TV shows and books, celebrating the invaluable richness of our land—a message in perfect harmony with Teknopiscine’s vision.
The event was also an opportunity to acknowledge the commitment and dedication of those who have contributed to the company’s success. With a touch of emotion, hosts Bruno Maggi and Vita D’Amico honored their best partners and collaborators, a moment of gratitude that celebrated a 20 years of shared achievements. The highlight of the awards ceremony was the launch of a new, ambitious project: “Ambassadors of Beauty,” an initiative that aims to further spread the value of beauty and excellence.
The celebration couldn’t have been complete without honoring the land that hosted it. A festival of excellence delighted palates with typical Puglia products, all strictly “zero-kilometer” (locally sourced). From the famous yellow-and-red tomato of Crispiano, a true regional flagship product, to delicious local meats and fine wine produced in the vineyards of the Itria Valley, every flavor was a tribute to tradition and quality.
The event concluded with a breathtaking finale by the pool. A stunning sand art performance brought sea sand to life, transforming it into emotional paintings, all set to the delicate notes of a piano. It was a moment of pure magic that sealed the evening, leaving guests with an indelible memory of beauty, passion, and art.
