| This year’s public conference will be titled “Italian foundries in the European context: what industrial policies?” (click here to download the program).
In a global landscape redefined by geopolitical instability and new protectionism, European industry and Italian foundries face in this 2025 not only the challenges typical of hard-to-abate sectors (from energy costs to the path to decarbonization) but also a slowing market characterized by high uncertainty and, indeed, a changing global environment. To discuss these crucial issues, speakers during the conference will include Chiara Danieli (president EFF – European Foundry Federation), who will outline the situation of our industry at the European level, Gianclaudio Torlizzi (T-Commodity), who will talk about“Raw materials and protectionism: new unknowns for European industry,” and Massimo Beccarello (University of Milan-Bicocca), who will discuss“Energy and competitiveness: how to overcome the cost knot to boost European industry.” This will be followed by a panel discussion among the speakers with the participation ofHon. Paolo Borchia (MEP and member of the Committee on Industry, Research and Energy). Prior to the conference, starting at 12:00 p.m., a networking lunch open to all event registrants is scheduled , which, as was the case last year, will be an important moment of meeting and discussion among supply chain players. For the Cluster, President Dr. Saverio Gaboardi will participate.
