“In the next five years Leonardo will hire 26 thousand people. Most of these will be STEM profiles but in Italy we struggle to find them and we cannot take them from other countries because in any case we also deal with national security. And so I tell the Universities that STEM requires effort particularly because the risk is of running out of neurons.” Roberto Cingolani, CEO and general manager of Leonardo, said this on the occasion of the 17th RomeCup which took place in Rome. Cingolani was interviewed by Riccardo Luna, director of Italian Tech and host of the event. Cingolani also spoke about cybersecurity and “digital twin” technology.
