Volare Alto

Volare Alto. Sostenere la crescita dell’industria aerospaziale in Italia, by Leonella Gori and Alessandro Sannini.

Space is the next industrial infrastructure

Competition in space is won on Earth: through the quality of companies, resilient supply chains and the ability to finance growth, research and industrial scale.

The book explores the figures, strategies and structural changes of the Italian space economy. It examines the relationship between public programmes and private capital, the role of SMEs, the need for consolidation and management capability, financial resilience and the choices that can make Italy a credible protagonist.

It is not a book about the fascination of orbit. It is a book about the conditions required to remain there.

Three publications, three complementary readings: analytical rigour, industrial proposals and a clear thesis on Italy’s ability to turn technical excellence into scale.
