The history of Inglesina began in a curious, original way. Everything started with the passion of the company's
founder, Liviano Tomasi, for four wheels and mechanics in general. However, young Tomasi was originally interested
in go-karts and in fact he dedicated himself to the tuning up and setting of karts for racing. But it was a short
step from engines to babies - first through the production of tricycles - especially with the encouragement of a
woman: his wife, Bruna.
So, in December 1963, at first accompanied by his brothers Augusto and Sergio, Liviano Tomasi embarked on what was
to prove a far-sighted and courageous business venture: he created L'Inglesina Baby and, with it, the production
of the first English-style prams - including the historic "London" - which even today represents one of the
inspirations for the unmistakable Inglesina style.
The company experienced constant and rapid growth, linked to the visibility the brand gained on the Italian market.
For a decade, L'Inglesina Baby's production remained centred on English-style prams but as early as the 1970s it
introduced a revolutionary stroller: the "Apollo" (whose name pays homage to the new era of space travel). In the
1980s, and the whole next decade, the company developed a presence in other international markets as well, expanding
its product line with articles such as baby seats, car seats and baby slings.
Today L'Inglesina Baby is one of the leading companies on the international scene, specializing in the early infancy
sector and a recognized interpreter of the "Made in Italy" style, elegance and quality, serving as its ambassador
to more than thirty countries around the world for more than forty years.
