Founded in 1966 by Bruno Busetto, the Istituto Mercurio, the first in its sector, immediately entered the economic fabric of the province. The strong industrial expansion that characterised the 1960s, and the entrepreneurial tenacity of the founder, were the fundamental elements that acted as a spring for the development of the agency. After decades of activity and a few thousand cases, Istituto Mercurio now works with people and partners nationally as well as internationally, has confidential sources in various sectors and makes use of the most sophisticated technology. Having received authorisation from the government, the agency is allowed to deal with civil and criminal cases, to collect judicial and testimonial evidence by offering high-level investigative tools to industrial groups, companies, associations, law firms, professionals and individuals. Istituto Mercurio makes use of external consultancy from lawyers, graphologists, analysis laboratories, experts in telematics, recording studios (audio technicians) and other professionals, thus giving the most qualified answer to any investigative need.
