Agnese Grigio (born 12 January 1963) is a visually impaired Italian Paralympic athlete. She won a silver medal and a bronze medal.

Career

She continued as a pentathlete and middle-distance runner. She competed at the 1984 Summer Paralympic Games in New York, winning a bronze medal in the 800 meters B3, and a silver medal in the Pentathlon B3.
