The

President of the Council of Ministers, Mario Draghi, is in Bari

, in his first institutional stop in the South, visiting the headquarters of Masmec, a leading company in the sector of precision technologies, robotics and mechatronics, from automotive to biomedical. During his visit to the factory in the industrial area of ​​Modugno, Draghi is accompanied by the mayor of Bari and the president of Anci, Antonio Decaro, by the president of the Puglia Region Michele Emiliano, by the president and CEO of the company Michele and Daniela Vinci. At the entrance, the green pass was checked for everyone, including the premier.

President Draghi will first visit the medical headquarters and in particular the technology developed around Covid diagnostics, the machinery for processing tampons. Then he will take a tour of the new headquarters under construction of the automotive, historical business of the company. Masmec, with about 300 employees, has been designing and manufacturing automatic machines and lines for the assembly and testing of automotive and e-mobility components for almost forty years, also thanks to simulation software, virtual commission, virtual reality and augmented reality. For about 15 years, in the biomedical field, it has started the design and construction of innovative devices capable of simplifying the work of specialists and improving the quality of care for patients,with navigation systems for carrying out interventional or surgical procedures, also using 3D imaging processing systems and virtual and augmented reality techniques, and machinery for laboratory medicine. For years, the company has started a collaboration with the ITS Cuccovillo of Bari, contributing to the post-graduate specialist training of students who also carry out internships in the plant. The ITS is the second stop in Bari of Draghi's visit.Its is the second stop in Bari of Draghi's visit.Its is the second stop in Bari of Draghi's visit.

"It is the first visit of the Prime Minister to the South after the commitments linked to the completion of the vaccination campaign and the activation of funds from the NRP. We feel proud that the first visit will take place here", said Antonio Decaro. "On this day we wanted to choose two of the most important realities from a production and training point of view - explained Decaro - and we wanted to keep them together precisely because we are convinced that there is no economy and innovation, without training and research. so we want to show the president today that compared to the stereotype that tells of a country split in two, in which we in the south always try to chase a train that we can never catch, in reality it is not so, in the sense that there are realities like these which are extraordinary realities.The training center that we will see later is a high school where 90% of people who finish their studies find work in companies that participate in ITS. So I think it is a way to show the president that there is also another South than what is being told ". In this sense" the resources of the PNRR will be an opportunity for us. We have stopped believing in providence - said Decaro -, we want to invest in talents that, by crossing an opportunity, transform themselves into the future. And those funds are an extraordinary opportunity, on the one hand to overcome gaps in our country, starting with the infrastructural one, and on the other hand because there are important measures. The most important, if I think about this company and the training center,it is the measure that strengthens the ITS system, creates a relationship between ITS and specialist universities, a network between local authorities, the entrepreneurial fabric and training and research centers. I think it is also an opportunity for our city, for our kids. Our young people can also decide to go around the world and feel like citizens of the world and to choose where to go to work but it must be a choice and not a necessity. The challenge must be to give our young people the opportunity to stay in our land in our city ".Our young people can also decide to go around the world and feel like citizens of the world and to choose where to go to work but it must be a choice and not a necessity.
