Besides acting as a platform for the development of innovative projects for gender [and generational] integration – GammaDonna acts also as an informal “observatory” and “listening hub” of the on-going socio-economic processes in Italy. Its most relevant initiative is the GammaDonna’s Prize, which awards women entrepreneurs who successfully introduced change and innovation in their companies, with sustainable goals.
