In Paris he made friends with several students and doctors of the Sorbonne including Doctor Durante who, called to Rome to direct the Surgical Clinic, proposed that he follow him since otherwise he would have had problems with the realization of his instruments: he therefore made available the first premises in the basement of the surgical clinic itself in Via Garibaldi, immediately moved to Via del Corso where it expanded and became the main supplier of surgical instruments to all Italian hospitals. This acquired fame meant that in 1896 it was Ernesto Invernizzi himself who was contacted by the Italian Army for the production of artificial limbs to be used for the mutilated Ascari following the battle of Adua. A workshop was even opened in Asmara, Eritrea. In 1910 Ernesto Invernizzi was named Cavaliere del Lavoro, honor conferred exclusively to those who have been able to establish a new industrial activity in Italy. From 1892 he had been supported by Vittorio Zambra, nephew and son-in-law, whose organizational skills allowed further developments and, above all, helped to structure the company in the legal form of SpA which he still maintains today. Vittorio Zambra ran the company until 1950, the year of his death; the management then passed to the nephews Claudio and Vittorio. Currently the company is run by a further generation of Della Valle.
