Piaggio Group Chief Executive of global strategy, product, marketing, and innovation Michele Colaninno is a busy man. Aside from his post at Piaggio, Colaninno is also the founder and Chair of Piaggio Fast Forward, a U.S.-based robotics company, and the CEO and COO of the Immsi Group, a Milan Stock Exchange-listed financial, real estate, and industrial holding company.
Apparently, three jobs aren’t enough for Colaninno, and the European Association of Motorcycle Manufacturers (ACEM) just named the Piaggio executive the new President of the Brussels, Belgium-based organization. The Colaninno administration coincides with ACEM’s latest restructuring, which also appoints KTM CEO Stefan Pierer, BMW Motorrad Head Markus Schramm, and Yamaha Motor Europe President Eric de Seynes as the association’s three new Vice Presidents.
