Luigi Cesare Pizzi Spadoni was born in Versilia (LU). His education was deeply marked by his experience in a Salesian boarding school, where there was a strong missionary sensitivity. For over fifty years he has been a Confrere of the Misericordia di Camaiore e Lido, and he was among the founders of the Misericordia del Lido di Camaiore. As a boy, he worked at the historic Hotel Souvenir in Lido di Camaiore, owned by his father Giuseppe and his mother Bianca Maria. His parents taught him the importance of responsibility, because “every action has weight” and “freedom is not a right, but a conscious choice to do good”. It was in their example that he grew up, inclined to faith and hope, to live the present and look to the future with confidence, even in difficulty. He interrupted his university studies to work with a leading ambulance outfitter as a sales agent and product developer. In 1988 he founded Spencer Italia, a company producing medical devices for emergency and rescue. His intuitions, ideas and entrepreneurial spirit created a reality that became a world leader in the EMS sector, able to respond to the demands of a constantly growing and continuously changing market. For more than thirty years, Luigi invented and patented life-saving equipment, developed markets in every country of the world, cultivated personal relationships with the thousands of people he dealt with and created hundreds of jobs. In 2020 he sold the company with the star to dedicate himself to a new phase of his life, leaving behind a dynamic, healthy reality respected everywhere for its solidity. It was then that he began to give shape to his dream, spazio + spadoni, a movement of Catholic inspiration that combines mercy and missionary spirit through relationships with missionary female religious congregations and volunteer associations around the world. His private collection of historic ambulances from all over the world became a museum open to visitors in 2010 and is located in the province of Parma. In 2023 he received honorary citizenship of the city of Rosolini (SR) and the Palma d’argento – Iustus ut palma florebit award established by the Diocese of Acireale together with Rosario Valastro, President of the Italian Red Cross.
