Laura Mattarella is the recipient of the Premio StellaRe 2026, an accolade created by the Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo to celebrate women who have transformed modern society. The award ceremony is set for 13 November at 18.30 in Turin and will showcase an oversized engagement ring designed by Maurizio Cattelan. Born in Palermo in 1967, she earned her law degree in 1991 and practiced civil and administrative law in Rome for two decades. In 2015, she paused her legal career to support her father, Sergio Mattarella, upon his election as President of the Republic. Established in 2006, the award has previously honored individuals such as Franca Sozzani and Fabiola Gianotti. Mattarella will also become a member of the Circolo StellaRe.
