State-owned companies have expressed their willingness to field additional investments of 15-20 billion within the next 5 years. This is the result of the control room inaugurated yesterday at Palazzo Chigi, where the Prime Minister, Giuseppe Conte, met the top management of Eni, Enel, Snam, Fincantieri, Ansaldo Energia, Saipem, Open Fiber, Poste, Fincantieri, Italgas, Ferrovie , Terna and Leonardo.
Also present at the meeting were Deputy Prime Minister Di Maio, Ministers Tria, Savona, Lezzi, Bongiorno, and Undersecretaries Giorgetti and Buffagni. However, the representatives of the League left earlier, proving that the meeting was promoted above all by the M5S.
Conte, who met Eni's CEO Claudio Descalzi separately before the meeting, has put 20,7 billion public investments on the table for the next three years (15,7 allocated for the maneuver and 5,7 already planned).
However, the companies have asked for guarantees on the de-bureaucratisation and on the need to start construction sites more quickly.
The CEO of Cassa Depositi e Prestiti, Fabrizio Palermo, will act as "liaison officer" between the subsidiaries, of which CDP is largely a shareholder, and the majority.
Eni said that with a quota of 100 starting from the age of 62, it could make a hiring plan of 3600 people over 4 years (3 young people for each departure). And he then guaranteed 7 billion of investments in Italy, of which one billion could be advanced immediately. Openings also came from Enel.
