Everything continues as if the transition to electric power is in any case taken for granted, even in Italy, where a new proposal has now been born.

He talks about it, al Journal of Puglia, Marco Barone, CEO of Mzz Industries, a reality born precisely to support the electrification of the market. Baron and his they want to give birth to a productive pole who takes care of lithium batteriesand later also of the variant al graphene.

Barone aims high, speaks of a reference for Italy and also for the world, and the area identified would be right in Puglia, in Monte Sant’Angelo, near Manfredonia, in land where the Enichem once stood. Currently the business plan for the start of the activities is articulated over a period of five years.

They are on the plate 120 million euros, by Swiss and English advisors, as well as a capital venture of entrepreneurs willing to accept the challenge. The project would be particularly relevant for the region, considering that estimates for 2023 speak of a drop in employment of a further 4,000 people. Mzz.Industries will also have an eye for young peoplestarting already in a few months with the hiring of 150 employees, to be trained within the company, to reach 700 by 2027.
