Elserino Piol di Valmorel. Il sogno di un'impresa

On October 2, 2025, at the Palazzo Crepadona in Belluno, the official presentation of the documentary "Elserino Piol di Valmorel. The Dream of an Enterprise" takes place.

The Department of Cultural Heritage has produced this documentary regarding the life and work of entrepreneur Elserino Piol, one of the most influential figures in global high-tech computing of the 20th and 21st centuries. The biographical documentary was created by intern students who attended the "Documentary Production Laboratory" of DAMS (Samuele Grando, Agnese Ferracin, Serena Toninello), coordinated by Dr. Vanni Cremasco (head of the departmental Audio Video Laboratory), directed by Prof. Mirco Melanco.

The fifty-minute film tells the biographical story of Elserino Piol, while simultaneously illustrating the evolution of Hi-Tech from the 1950s onwards, passing through Olivetti, Omnitel, Infostrada, Kiwi, etc. An engaging narrative that connects Piol to his native land, the beautiful Valmorel, a location in the Belluno Pre-Alps (approximately 800 m above sea level) where, these days, the headquarters of the Elserino Piol Foundation is officially inaugurated. The institution, presided over by Andrea Piol (Elserino's son), aims to involve young people in a continuously transforming technological world even in planetary mountains, while fully respecting the environment.
