Fincantieri Launches Roadshow to Showcase Innovation and Future of Italian Shipbuilding

Fincantieri recently launched a roadshow called “Open shipyards, view on the future” to showcase the excellence of Italian shipbuilding and highlight the technological advancements and transformations taking place within the industry. The initiative, which has just begun, involves opening the doors of Fincantieri’s construction sites to institutions. The event kicked off with a visit from the Minister of the Interior Matteo Piantedosi and will continue until 2025 with events at various sites across Italy.

During the event, speeches were given by key figures such as the President of Fincantieri Biagio Mazzotta, CEO Pierroberto Folgiero, and other directors who discussed the technological transformations and safety measures at the shipyard. The “Masters of the Sea” program was also highlighted, which provides paid training courses and has already led to the hiring of 90 resources, with plans to hire more in the coming years. Additionally, Fincantieri is focusing on recruiting non-EU personnel with professional training and civic-linguistic education courses to address the shortage of qualified manpower.

Another key focus of the event was on technological innovation at the construction sites, with an emphasis on “intelligent industrialization” that combines automation, robotics, and artificial intelligence. This approach aims to create a new work model that leverages technology to automate demanding tasks, allowing employees to advance into more qualified roles. Additionally, Fincantieri prioritizes the safety and well-being of its employees, implementing a structured plan supported by various certifications to ensure a safe working environment for all.

Overall, the event underscored Fincantieri’s commitment to driving the shipyard of the future through investments in human capital, technological innovation, and employee well-being. By showcasing their advancements and initiatives, Fincantieri aims to position itself as a leader in Italian shipbuilding and a pioneer in shaping the future of the industry.
