Asteroid 7030, Colombini, was discovered on December 18, 1993 at the Santa Lucia Observatory at Stroncone, Italy, which gets the credit for its discovery. Colombini has a period of 3 years, 296 days.
It was named after distinguished Italian amateur astronomer Ermes Colombini (born 1956).

Howard Schultz (born July 19, 1953, in New York), founder of Starbucks, has Colombini semisquare Juno (relating), quintile Saturn (work, career, reputation) and Neptune (idealism), square Varuna (judgment, grown big), and trine Dioretsa(doing something that makes something stick to you), Heracles (to strive with), Elatus and Pandora (making a splash, having an impact, unintended consequences).
In the Starbucks incorporation chart (June 26, 1992), Colombini is conjunct Hidalgo (to promote, to assert), sextile Mercury (ideas, commerce), and square Varuna (judgment, grown big) and the Nodes (connections, taking in and giving out). Starbucks has been criticized as a corporatization of the cafe concept and hasn't always been able to avoid getting drawn into the politics of coffee growing.
