Ibarra (Engineering): “Push for digitization needed in the South”

“The issue of digital infrastructure is certainly more important in the South than in the Center and North; which does not mean that there are no gray areas or even white areas in the Center and North but the problem of the digital divide in the South is without ‘other more evident “. This is what Maximo Ibarra, CEO of Engineering underlines, speaking at the summit on ‘Pnrr: how will they impact the economic and social system of our country?’ Organized by EY and Luiss Business School. Even the productive fabric in the South is less exposed to international competition and “the scarce presence of these realities makes it more difficult to carry out important investments” in the area, says Ibarra: which does not mean that this gap cannot be filled but “is a problem that must be faced “with a push towards digitalization that can also come from the Public Administration.
