Organized by the Ligurian Marine Technologies District together with Promostudi and the La Spezia section of Atena, it aims to be an opportunity to encourage dialogue between blue economy workers, institutions, universities and research. “More than a conference, this is intended to be a working meeting to examine the situation, the problems and propose solutions: in this way it will be possible to highlight the critical issues to be resolved at a technical and regulatory level and analyze the prospects for improvement. Spezia can be a model of national interest” underlines the president of the DLTM Lorenzo Forcieri. “2023 saw almost 39 million passengers choose the sea for local travel in Italy, with an increase of 10% on 2022 and 3% on 2019.
