On August 20, 2012 the CEO and President of Lamborghini, Stephan Winkelmann, was given the Concorso La Bella Macchina Hall of Fame award in recognition of his fantastic work for the luxury automobile company. Originally from Rome, Winkelmann has been the President and CEO of Automobili Lamborghini since 2005 and has spent the last seven years helping to turn the company drastically around by increasing sales.

"This achievement is a result of Winkelmann's focus on implementing a solid strategy for its V10 and V12 sports car range, leading the development and launch of the flagship Aventador LP 700-4 while investing in new technologies and facilities to produce its full carbon fiber monocoque, as well as supporting and growing the dealer network," says Lamborghini.
