The President of CONI, Giovanni Malagò, and the President of Fondazione Roma, Prof. Emmanuele Francesco Maria Emanuele, signed this morning an agreement to donate a magnetic resonance imaging device to the Institute of Sports Sciences and Medicine. The press conference for the initiative was also attended by the Secretary General of CONI, Roberto Fabbricini, the Deputy Secretary General, Carlo Mornati, the CEO of Coni Servizi, Alberto Miglietta, the Medical Director of the Institute of Sports Sciences and Medicine, Antonio Spataro, the Director General of Fondazione Roma, Franco Parasassi and the Head of institutional activities of Fondazione Roma, Serena Ghisalberti.

The President of CONI Giovanni Malagò signed the agreement while proudly saying: "It's a historic moment. This partnership is invaluable, consistent with what we try to do with all our stakeholders. The foundation is good, focused on social investments, and also joined the world of sport to pursue this goal. This donation really makes the Institute of Medicine independent: we want to be open to all excellences, also through special conventions and agreements. We are honored by this agreement".

The President of Fondazione Roma, Emmanuele Francesco Maria Emanuele, stressed the concepts expressed by Malagò. "I'm very happy with this successful partnership. In recent years, no one has achieved results as good as our foundation. Our goal is to increase the assets and help activities in the fields of health, culture and society, even if we find it hard to intervene with donations. It seems paradoxical, but we live in these situations. However, CONI is led by an entrepreneur who understands these dynamics well, so everything was easy with them. I would like to thank President Malagò and Professor Spataro for their professionalism and dedication. We are proud to help the Institute of Sports Medicine purchase a piece of equipment that is an essential part of diagnostic imaging. The added value of this initiative is the fact that this machine will not be used only for athletes of various national teams, but for the entire population. This aspect highlights, once again, the social commitment of Fondazione Roma." They helped the Institute of Sports Sciences and Medicine with a donation of €700,000. Coni Servizi has already obtained the necessary permits to accommodate the unit in the Institute.
