Amedeo Margotto Appointed President of the Verona Chamber of Architects. With a focus on continuity and openness, the 2025–2029 Council prioritizes training, culture, and professional ethics

Verona, June 24, 2025 – Amedeo Margotto has been appointed the new president of the Chamber of Architects, Planners, Landscapers and Conservationists of the Province of Verona. Elected during the Council’s first meeting on June 23, following the elections held on May 13 and 14, Margotto will lead the institution for the 2025–2029 term, representing a professional community of over 2,280 registered architects.

A seasoned professional with extensive experience in the institution, Margotto previously served as president from 2018 to 2021—an especially challenging period due to the pandemic—and as a councilor from 2013 to 2017. He will be joined by a new leadership team: Alberto Vignolo as Vice President (also editor of the Chamber’s journal Architettiverona since 2010), Anna Righetti as Secretary, and Daniel Mantovani, reconfirmed as Treasurer.

The new Council brings significant renewal: eight of its fifteen members are serving for the first time, and eight are women—an encouraging sign of a shared commitment to broadening perspectives, encouraging innovation, and fostering a more inclusive, dynamic approach to representing the profession.

The elected list’s platform is encapsulated in the phrase “Con-Ordine”—a play on words that conveys a clear, reasoned, and thoughtful vision. The program focuses on consolidating the Chamber’s identity, coordinating professional policies, promoting an ethical culture of design, and reinforcing the role of the profession in today’s society.

“We don’t believe in making bold statements before rolling up our sleeves,” commented newly elected president Amedeo Margotto. “Our priority is to serve the Verona architectural community with a generous and grounded approach, fully aware of the responsibilities that our institutional role entails. In continuity with previous leadership, we are committed to a carefully planned agenda focused on training, cultural engagement, and professional ethics. We want to open the Chamber and the profession to new opportunities through tools and initiatives already in the pipeline.”

With an eye to the future and a clear sense of institutional responsibility, the new Council is ready to guide the next four years with the goal of enhancing the value of architecture and actively supporting those who practice it every day.
