#FindTheOrange, the no-profit association promoted by Osborne Clarke in Italy, is participating in the UniCredit Relay Marathon 2026 in support of the IRCCS Carlo Besta Neurological Institute. Thanks to the relays organised for the Milan Relay Marathon, the association will support scientific research projects for the treatment of nervous system diseases in children.

 

#FindTheOrange, the non-profit association promoted by the international law firm Osborne Clarke in Italy, is participating again this year in the Milan Relay Marathon 2026 linked to the Milan Marathon, scheduled for 12 April. Through this initiative, #FindTheOrange will support the IRCCS Carlo Besta Neurological Institute, an international center of excellence for research and treatment of neurological diseases in adults and children, as well as neurosurgical and neuro-oncological pathologies.

15 March is the deadline for registering for the event with #FindTheOrange by purchasing the full marathon, a single relay consisting of four legs, or a single leg. This is an opportunity to get together and, at the same time, support the IRCCS Carlo Besta Neurological Institute in launching a research project that aims to apply advanced genetic testing to children with nervous system tumors, one of the main oncological problems in pediatrics, thus allowing for a better understanding of the genetic causes and improving their management, from monitoring to treatment.

Nunzia Melaccio, Partner at Osborne Clarke and President of #FindTheOrange: "Participating in the 2026 Milan Marathon alongside the Besta Institute is a concrete way for us to support scientific research that promotes human well-being, one of our association's primary objectives. At Osborne Clarke and through #FindTheOrange, we truly believe in the potential of technology and innovation to serve people: that's why we invite colleagues, clients, partners, and friends to run with us, turning every kilometer into an investment in healthcare and health."

Marta Marsilio, President of the IRCCS Carlo Besta Neurological Institute: "I would like to express my sincere thanks to Osborne Clarke and #FindTheOrange for their concrete support for our Institute, conveyed through a sporting competition capable of bringing togetehr people, energy, and values. Initiatives such as this demonstrate how collaboration between different worlds can translate into a real and positive impact. In research, as in everyday life, unity is truly strength. Only through teamwork can we continue to promote scientific innovation and offer new hope to patients and their families."
