Giovanni Alberto Agnelli

Giovanni "Giovannino" Alberto Agnelli was an Italian businessman and member of the Agnelli family, an Italian industrial dynasty associated with Fiat. Agnelli's father was politician and industrialist Umberto Agnelli; his uncle was Fiat head Gianni Agnelli. Prior to his 1997 death at age 33, Giovanni was the heir apparent and designated future chairman of the Fiat group. According to the New York Times, his reputation among the Italian public was comparable to that of John F. Kennedy Jr. in the United States: "rich, strikingly handsome, always smiling and the leading voice of his generation."
