Orphaned at an early age, he divided himself between working during the day and studying in the evening.[1][2]
In 1892, after completing his military service, he moved to Isola del Liri,[3] where he was hired at the Cartiere Meridionali as an assistant until he became head of manufacture.[1][2][4]
After marrying Speranza Ippolito, heir of the Lanificio Ippolito, he took over the leadership, changing its name, in 1901, to Ditta Ippolito & Pisani. In a few years he expanded the production plant which went from 560 square meters to 11000 square meters, exploiting the waters of the Liri river for the production of electricity through the construction of a derivation canal.[5][6] The production was gradually adapted to the flourishing paper industry in the area, with felts for technical articles of excellent quality,[7][8] so much so that they were also in demand abroad.[9] His merits in the entrepreneurial field were recognized in 1916, when he was awarded the title of Cavaliere del Lavoro.[10][11][12]
He paid subsidies in the event of seniority, disability or illness, guaranteeing an indemnity to those who left their work at the Feltrificio Ippolito & Pisani for any reason and granting three days of bonuses at Christmas and Easter to allow employees to celebrate anniversaries with loved ones.[1] He donated a large sum of money for the construction of the hospital in Isola del Liri, as well as taking care of getting electricity and drinking water to many districts of the country that did not have them and building buildings to give a home to his less well-off employees.[17][2][7]
