About Logo:
"The human sketch enclosed in the acronym is inspired by the famous Uomo Vitruviano by Leonardo da Vinci, the most representative example of Italian ingenuity in art and technology. Leonardo left many evidences of his work in Lombardy, where he resided for a period. In this drawing he points to the perfect proportions and geometrical properties of the human figure, suggesting the ideal integration of nature and rationality in the human being."
