Italian businesswoman, Massimiliana Landini Aleotti, has an estimated net worth of $10.6 billion as of June 2016, according to Forbes. She is best recognized as the wife of the late, Alberto Aleotti, who died in 2014. Along with her three children, she is set to inherit the Menarini, a pharmaceutical company, from her husband.

Throughout the years, Alberto Aleotti has been instrumental to the massive growth and global expansion of Menarini, which is now considered as one of the leading pharmaceutical companies throughout Italy. In fact, the company has around 14 manufacturing companies across the globe with over 16,000 employees. In 2014, the company earned a total revenue of around $3.8 billion.

It was in 1964 when Alberto Aleotti started working for the company but it was only during the early 1990s, when he actually purchased it. In 1992, his eldest daughter, Lucia, joined the company. Due to his deteriorating health condition, Lucia was handed the chairmanship of the company, while her brother Alberto Giovanni served as the company's Vice Chairman. Since 2010, the Aleottis have been dealing with the tax evasion case filed by the Italian authorities.
