Diego Della Valle took the small shoe factory his grandfather started and turned it into global shoe- and purse-maker Tod's S.p.A.
Della Valle, who is chairman, and his brother Andrea together own the majority of the company.
In 2024, the brothers teamed up with private equity firm L Catterton and LVMH to take Tod's private at a $1.5 billion valuation.
The brothers also hold stakes in Italian scooter-maker Piaggio and multimedia conglomerate RCS MediaGroup.
The brothers owned Florence-based soccer team AC Fiorentina from 2002 to 2019, when they sold it to fellow billionaire Rocco Commisso.
He cofounded Italy's first private rail operator, Ntv-Italo, in 2006 and sold it 12 years later to an American investment firm for $2.2 billion.
He has spearheaded a campaign to renovate the crumbling Roman Colosseum, committing millions of euros from Tod's for the project.
In 2017, Della Valle opened a new factory in the central Italian town of Arquata del Tronto as part of recovery efforts after a devastating 2016 earthquake.
