WAMGROUP inaugurated its new Technology Centre on the company’s 50th anniversary

On June 15th, WAMGROUP of Ponte Motta di Cavezzo, Modena, Italy, inaugurated its new Technology
Centre.
On the company’s 50th anniversary, on Friday, June 15, 2018, WAMGROUP celebrated the inauguration of
the new Technological Centre at the company’s headquarters in Via Archimede in Ponte Motta di Cavezzo,
Modena, Italy.
Following the ribbon cutting in the presence of the president of the Emilia-Romagna Region, Stefano
Bonaccini, the mayors of Modena and the municipalities of the Modenese lowlands, as well as the bishop
of Carpi, Monsignor Cavina, an academic symposium was held on some current scientific topics and of
particular interest for technological innovations related to environmental protection.
The Technology Centre is a structure aimed at researching and developing new industrial products. Its
objective is the study and analysis of bulk solids and those operating in the field of environmental
technologies. Research focuses on dust filtration, solids-liquid separation in animal husbandry and various
industries, on wastewater treatment and hydropower. The centre includes a research laboratory, a training
centre and a permanent exhibition. In addition to being an international point of reference in research and
development of new products and related applications, it aims to become a meeting place for training
young professionals from around the world.
The WAMGROUP Technology Centre is therefore the cornerstone of an industrial strategy aimed at
increasing skills, driving the professional and occupational growth of both the company and the territory on
which WAMGROUP bases its roots.
In his speech WAMGROUP president, Vainer Marchesini, stressed the importance of training young people
to ensure the company a successful future in an increasingly globalised world.
In thanking Marchesini for his commitment in the reconstruction after the 2012 earthquake, President
Bonaccini emphasized the worldwide success of the companies of the Emilia-Romagna thanks to their
innovation capacity, which results in an ever-increasing competitiveness on international markets. With the
new WAMGROUP Technology Centre, WAMGROUP proves to believe in research and development as the
main strategy to create new jobs in the future.
In the context of the inauguration, the following day a big party dedicated to the families with more than
1,200 participants took place at the WAMGROUP headquarters.
