Milan's rich list changes again! Pencil sellers can also make the list? And the gaming brothers

Wow, the Milan rich list is out! The latest one for 2026. This list is so interesting, with many people we haven't heard of before. There are tech people, old-school factory owners, and a pair of brothers who got rich from gaming. The world of Milan's rich has changed a lot.

There's a man named Fabrizio Di Amato, born in 1963, ranked 23rd on the Italian rich list. He is the boss and founder of the Maire Group. The group is located on Via De Castilla, near Porta Nuova in Milan. His company has a branch called NextChem, which is working on industrial decarbonization, making factories more environmentally friendly. This man also received the Order of Merit for Labour in 2016, impressive, right?

Speaking of the tech circle, this year there are four people who got rich from Bending Spoons software and algorithms. I heard their wealth has reached 12 billion euros, which is terrifying. And that old pencil family, who would have thought? Turns out selling pencils can get you on the list. And the gaming brothers are also rich. The rich in Milan really come from all industries—not just manufacturing, but tech makes money super fast too.
