With the acquisition of Fameccanica we want to further invest in a sector with great potential for development and in which our country boasts extraordinary skills. We believe that automation, innovation and robotics will increasingly be at the core of the profound change in industrial processes and will therefore represent for our Group a great opportunity to grow".
