Luca Dal Fabbro presented his book “Protecting the future” in Milan, talking with Giulio Tremonti on current energy challenges

On 20 November, in the Milan headquarters of Banca Ersel, a dialogue was held between Luca Dal Fabbro, President of IrenAnd Giulio Tremonti, President of the Foreign Affairs Commission of the Chamber of Deputieson the occasion of the presentation of the essay «Protect the future»published by Rubbettino. The meeting offered an opportunity to reflect on the role of Italy and Europe in a geopolitical and economic context characterized by instability and profound transformations.

At the center of the discussion are the themes of energy security, economic and environmental resilience and the need to build a national strategy capable of addressing the challenges of the transition. Tremonti underlined the complexity of the international framework, in which technological competition, risks deriving from energy dependence and new geopolitical dynamics are intertwined. Dal Fabbro highlighted how the ability to resist shocks and transform them into opportunities is now essential to guarantee the stability of industrial and social systems.

A dialogue that highlighted choices that can no longer be postponed: energy innovation, defense of strategic production chains, sustainable investments and an integrated approach to national security.

«Protect the future»

In the essay «Protecting the future», Luca Dal Fabbro proposes a new and pragmatic vision to address the three great global transitions: energy, digital and geopolitics. The author supports the need to adopt integrated decision-making models that put people at the centre three fundamental priorities: economic competitiveness, energy security and environmental resilience.

Dal Fabbro invites institutions, businesses and citizens to consider the complexity of the present time as an opportunity for effective innovation. The industrial developmentinterpreted as a strategic lever, is indicated as a foundation for strengthening the country’s autonomy and guaranteeing balanced growth. Equally crucial is the environmental issuenot as a slogan, but as an essential condition for the survival of social and productive systems, without obviously neglecting economic well-being.

An operational manual and strategic reflection

The volume is configured as an operational manual and at the same time a strategic reflection: a written path for those who are called upon to make decisions in an unstable global scenario, where the challenge is not to survive the future, but to protect it and transform it into something positive for Italy and Europe.

«Protecting the future», in this sense, is not just a book, but a call to responsibility and vision long-term, which gives the topic of global transitions a concrete and realistic interpretation, far from rhetoric of any kind and very close to the needs of our time. Also because, as the president of Mundys and Fincantieri NexTech Giampiero Massolo states in the preface, «Protecting the future does not mean predicting the unknown, but taking on the responsibility of leading change: an act, today more than ever, of leadership conconscious.”
