Milan, 28 April 2025. DHH S.p.A. (DHH.MI) (ISIN shares IT0005203622) is pleased to announce the release of a documentary telling the ten-year journey of its entrepreneurial project. Directed by Paolo Pioltelli, the film explores the evolution of DHH and its peculiar approach to technological innovation in the Internet infrastructure sector.
“The Turtle’s Race. Tech Innovation Rising from Europe’s Peripheries” tells the story of a group that, over the past decade, has grown steadily by acquiring companies rooted in their local territories – from Ciociaria to the Balkans – and guiding them towards a new industrial dimension. All of this without chasing the myths of Silicon Valley and without losing their identity and craftsmanship.
Through the voices of some of the key figures involved, the documentary highlights how DHH has made a federation of skills its core strength. With steady steps and a shared vision, these “turtles” – as opposed to the unicorn rhetoric that dominates the tech world – continue to chart new paths for the future of the technology market.
The documentary is freely available online on DHH’s website: www.dhh.international
