Marco Piccinini (born 2 July 1952 in Rome) is a Monegasque sport personality, businessman, and politician.


Personal

Picinnini's father Arnaldo was a pioneer in the Italian electronic industry. In the 1950s he founded an industrial group which included innovative brands such as VOXSON (TV, car radios, hi-fi etc.) and VIDEOCOLOR (color TV picture tubes and other hi-tech electronic components). At the end of the 1960s, due to Arnaldo's declining health, the family disposed of their interests in the various industrial activities and decided to move to Monaco where, after his father's death, Marco focused on his two main interests – finance and motor racing. Marco studied architecture in Rome, where he also began his involvement in motor racing by cooperating with a Formula 3 constructor and racing team called ‘‘De Sanctis’’. He also received training in the Techniques of International Negotiations at the Graduate Institute of International Studies in Geneva. In 1997 married Marie-Ahlem and they have a daughter.
