A systemic transformation: from a blank page to strategy, with sustainability at the centre

The 24 ORE Group has long been a benchmark for economic and cultural information in Italy.
In a context where innovation increasingly speaks the language of social and environmental responsibility, the Group chose to embark on a major transformation, designing a new industrial plan that placed innovation and sustainability as integrated and complementary pillars.

This vision was translated into a structured transformation process supported by Innovamey, which guided the Group in defining a renewed cultural and operational identity — one reflected in governance, offerings, internal processes and editorial content.
A process that involved the entire organisation and, through Innovamey’s support, led to the identification of measurable, essential indicators to assess the impact generated.

“Sustainability projects us toward what we want and need to become.
This is why we sat down with Innovamey: to intentionally define the path that would enable us to support a responsible corporate culture in a coherent and effective way.”
— Gionata Tedeschi, Chief Innovation & Technology Officer, 24 ORE Group

1. Strategy & Governance: Sustainability as an organisational infrastructure

From the very beginning, the transformation took shape through a strategic and governance review, supported by an ESG model integrated into decision-making processes. Innovamey supported the Group in strengthening a framework capable of guaranteeing transparency, coherence and measurability — positioning sustainability as a true strategic lever.

Key actions included:

• Participation in the ESG governance structure, introducing a cross-functional Steering Committee
• Definition of integrated KPIs within management control and measurement systems
• Collaboration on reporting documentation together with Finance, Legal and Audit teams

This organisation-wide effort led the Group to use its Non-Financial Statement as a genuine tool of accountability and strategic guidance, recognised by stakeholders, investors and institutions.

2. Operations & Wellbeing: A new way of working, living and measuring

The strategic vision triggered deep operational change, transforming not only infrastructure but the Group’s entire way of working. Innovamey worked alongside internal teams — full of vision and ideas — to integrate sustainability and wellbeing into daily processes and company policies.
A transformation that touched multiple functions simultaneously and that today is measurable across environmental, social and organisational dimensions.

“For us, the organisation is a living space of shared responsibility.
Today, sustainability means exactly that: wellbeing, flexibility, participation, listening.
It has become a core part of our vision and our company culture.”
— Paola Boromei, Head of People, Development & Organisation, 24 ORE Group

Among the most significant initiatives:

• A redesigned training plan focused on Innovation, Sustainability and vertical specialisations, supported by a new smart learning platform
• A new wellbeing model including benefits, free fruit and healthy snacks, flexible smart-working policies and everyday wellbeing initiatives
• The launch of the People Happiness Survey, integrated into listening systems
• Integration of ESG criteria within procurement processes

3. Internal Culture & Gender Equality: From certification to diversity governance

The work on culture was systemic.
The 24 ORE Group became the first Italian media company certified for gender equality, not only through formal tools but also through a governance model and an inclusive culture practised daily.

Key achievements included:

• Introduction of gender KPIs within the People & Organisation systems
• Establishment of a permanent Diversity & Inclusion Committee
• Mentorship and training programmes on bias and inclusive leadership
• A renewed internal and external narrative, with more representative “voices” across content, events and productions

“Diversity is no longer a side topic.
We are no longer talking about quotas — we are talking about impact and innovation.”
— Karen Nahum, General Manager Publishing & Digital, 24 ORE Group

4. Visible, measurable, shared impacts

The strength of this journey lies in its concreteness.
The 24 ORE Group has achieved results with measurable positive impact and has positioned itself as a reference point in how sustainability is narrated and designed for companies, institutions and professionals.

A transformation that continues

Today, sustainability is no longer a time-bound project:
it is an active organisational culture, a lever of innovation and a defining element of identity.
The journey continues, with the aim of ensuring a coherent and generative evolution.
