Ornella Laneri

I was born in Catania in 1963, where I spent most of my life, working and growing my two beloved kids, Michele – 1994-and Carolina-2000. After my classical high school studies, I thought I might have been an architect, so I moved to Milan where I attended Politecnico for three years. But the great mother “Etna” called me back, and my family duties did too. I am now an entrepreneur in the hospitality industry, with over 35 years experience and an energetic and natural leadership. My natural skills are organizing and managing, and my strengths are decision making, problem solving, cohesive staff building. My goal is guests satisfaction through staff motivation and outstanding services, in an eco-sustainable and ethic environment. In 2017, I started a new fascinating experience in art, opening OELLE Mediterraneo Antico Foundation: this new no profit activity gave me the opportunity to express my gratitude to my territory that contributed to my success, creating new opportunities and opening art spaces and exhibitions. I am currently president of AIDDA Sicilia (Associazione Imprenditrici e Donne Dirigenti d’azienda) and I am the coordinator of AIDDA for tourism, a group born during the first pandemic lockdown that includes more than 80 women entrepreneurs. I am also vice president of Tourism, Culture and Events section of Confindustria Catania.
