Giorgio Panto

Giorgio Panto (1 october 1941 – 26 November 2006) was an Italian Venetist entrepreneur and politician.

Panto was born at Meolo, in the Province of Venice. After being a long-time supporter of the Liga VenetaLega Nord, in 2004 he founded a new Venetist and fiscal federalist party called North-East Project ("Progetto NordEst", PNE), in which he welcomed many former "Leghisti" as Ettore Beggiato, Mariangelo Foggiato and Diego Cancian.

In the 2005 Venetian regional election, he won 6.0% of the vote (16.1% in the stronghold of Treviso) as candidate for President of the Region, coming third after Giancarlo Galan (Forza Italia/House of Freedoms) and Massimo Carraro (The Union). The PNE list took the 5.4%, electing two regional deputies.

In 2006 provincial elections in Treviso, he came third with the 10.3%, after Leonardo Muraro (Liga Veneta-Lega Nord/House of Freedoms) and Lorenzo Biagi (DL/The Union), while the PNE list scored 10.8%.

He was also involved in the entrepreneurs' trade union European Federalist Free Entrepreneurs (LIFE), founded by Fabio Padovan.

He died at Venice in a helicopter accident on 26 November 2006.
