Mario Moretti Polegato, President of GEOX and his son, Enrico have donated €1 million to the Veneto Region to help manage the health care emergency caused by the coronavirus outbreak. 

Mario Moretti Polegato said: "In this historic moment of extreme emergency that Italy and Veneto are experiencing, it is our moral duty to support our doctors and nurses, working every day at the forefront, in the fight against an invisible yet so fearful enemy which makes us all equal, vulnerable, helpless... We are facing a severe crisis but I am sure that we will rise again, stronger than before."
