“Cohesion to restart”
The new president of Confindustria Campania stressed the need to demonstrate compactness in order to start the recovery: «I believe – he continued – that cohesion between all Campania entrepreneurs must be the lever for regional strategic development. I think diversity is an opportunity. For this reason, the commitment must be to make the most of the uniqueness and strengths of each individual territory, so as to proceed together along the path of the restart ».
After the wider Covid, the North-South gap on innovation
The Covid crisis – for Traettino – has highlighted a heavy gap between southern and northern companies in terms of innovation and digitization, aggravating an already very critical situation. «Now – he said – we have an extraordinary and unrepeatable development opportunity represented by the Recovery Fund. We must be good at spending these resources well, presenting organic and credible projects. “And with reference to the Recovery Fund, he added:” We need to intervene in three fundamental areas: reforms, investments in infrastructure and industrial investments.
Dialogue with the PA
On the reform front – added the new president of the Campanian industrialists – «I am thinking of a decisive action on the public administration: a radical change, based on a massive work of de-bureaucratization through digitization and staff training, appears no longer to be postponed. Furthermore, the gap in the southern infrastructures must be removed immediately, by strengthening interventions for digital networks, logistics and transport, also in an eco-sustainable key, with a view to connecting with the Euro-Mediterranean trade routes. The Special Economic Zones, the Zes, must also be relaunched, attributing real powers to the Commissioners, streamlining the administrative and authorization procedures and allocating much greater resources to this project ”.
