historical supervision of *Marconi Museum* (Guglielmo Marconi Foundation).

*Commemorating the 150th anniversary from the birth of the great Italian 
scientist (1874)*, this award aims to delve deeper into the thought, 
vision capacity and character of Guglielmo Marconi, through selected, 
significant *fragments from some of his many public speeches*, with an 
excursus, moving from the first scientific reports to the last radio 
message, he sent just a few months before his sudden death, occurred in 
1937.

As summarized by *Dr. Barbara Valotti, director of the Marconi Museum 
and curator of the relevant historical research:*
/“Guglielmo Marconi was the initiator of one of the most extraordinary 
changes and innovations at the origins of the contemporary world: his 
invention, a wireless telegraphy system developed in 1895, started the 
era of radio communications.
Thanks to his ability to combine singular technological ability and a 
concrete entrepreneurial spirit, Marconi dedicated himself to the 
development of his invention and, over the course of a career that 
lasted forty years, he was an inventor, entrepreneur, scientist, great 
protagonist and, above all, the innovator and creator of the new field 
he had started when he was just twenty years old: wireless communications.”/

The award dedicates each month of 2024 to a specific phrase pronounced 
by Guglielmo Marconi, which is resumed in a single "keyword", 
summarizing and characterizing its content. The special and exclusive 
amateur radio callsign associated with each month also contains an 
acronym from this keyword.
