GPS Standard Honored at the XIV Edition of the Confindustria Innovation Award
We are proud to announce that GPS Standard has been recognized as a finalist at the XIV Edition of the Confindustria Innovation Award (Premio IxI), an initiative by Confindustria to celebrate companies excelling in innovation. This recognition underscores our unwavering commitment to innovation, which lies at the heart of our growth and competitiveness strategy.
The Premio IxI is one of the most prestigious national honors, awarded to businesses that excel not only in product and technology innovation but also in embedding innovation across all dimensions of their organization. Being among the finalists fills us with pride and motivates us to continue investing in ideas, people, and technologies.
The Uniqueness of the Confindustria Innovation Award
The Premio IxI stands out for its rigor and exclusivity. Participants are evaluated through a methodology based on the internationally recognized EFQM Model. This model not only assesses tangible achievements but also rewards the ability to integrate innovative strategies into the company’s DNA, fostering a long-term, sustainable vision.
“Awarding us this prestigious honor means we have stood out in a highly competitive selection process involving Italy’s top businesses,” says Pietro Capula, President and Founder of GPS Standard. “Our achievement highlights GPS Standard as a benchmark in perimeter security and a shining example of how innovation and sustainability can coexist to create lasting value.”
Innovation and People: The Core of Our Company
“For us, innovation means putting people first—our clients, our team members, and our partners,” explains Marco Capula, Chief Strategy Officer at GPS Standard. “We believe the best ideas come from collaboration and a deep understanding of market needs. This philosophy has allowed us to develop advanced security solutions that address today’s challenges while anticipating tomorrow’s opportunities. It’s an honor to be recognized as an Innovative SME for our efforts.”
Twelve companies were awarded nationally in the 2024 edition, divided into “Award,” “Prize,” and “Finalists”; only four in the latter category, where GPS Standard stands alongside global leaders such as Ericsson Telecomunicazioni.
Renato Nordera, Head of International Sales, adds: “Our commitment translates into continuous investment in research and development, utilizing technologies that integrate artificial intelligence, automation, and environmental sustainability. For us, perimeter security is not just a goal but a responsibility toward our clients and the broader community.”
Looking Ahead
“This award is not a destination but an important milestone in our journey,” reflects Davide Monterisi, Head of Italian Sales. “We will continue to push the boundaries of innovation, driven by the passion and dedication that define us.”
We extend our heartfelt thanks to Confindustria for this extraordinary recognition. Above all, we dedicate this achievement to everyone who contributes daily to the success of GPS Standard. Together, we will keep building a safer, more innovative, and more sustainable future.
