Entitled “Connected to Grow: A Shared Commitment to a Cohesive and Competitive Italy,” the forum brought together representatives from industry, government, and academia to discuss the major challenges reshaping the national industrial landscape, including technological innovation, digital transformation, industrial policies, sustainability, and workforce development.

Within this framework, UMBRAGROUP contributed its perspective, built on more than fifty years of experience in developing high-precision motion technologies for the aerospace, defense, and advanced industrial sectors, where innovation, reliability, and expertise are essential to competing successfully on a global scale.

“In a global environment marked by profound technological, geopolitical, and energy transformations, we believe it is essential to foster constructive dialogue among businesses, institutions, and management in order to strengthen the competitiveness of our national industrial system and enhance the role of innovation as a driver of sustainable growth,” said Fabrizio Brandi, Group Chief Marketing & Communication Officer at UMBRAGROUP.

For UMBRAGROUP, attracting talent, investing in continuous learning, advancing the digitalization of industrial processes, and developing cutting-edge technologies are strategic priorities for supporting the growth and competitiveness of Italian companies in international markets while contributing to the development of the broader industrial ecosystem.

Participation in the Federmanager Forum reinforces the Group’s commitment to promoting opportunities for dialogue and collaboration among industry, management, and institutions, based on the conviction that national competitiveness is built through a shared vision, investment in skills and talent, and a strong capacity for innovation.
