The plenary assembly of the Steering Committees of the 11 Technological Districts of the Tuscany Region, held in Florence at the regional headquarters, entrusted the presidency of the Nautical and Port District to the artisan sector. Specifically, the agreement regarding the presidency provides that Confartigianato and CNA will face the top position together with a formula that commits their respective representatives to a rotation that will see Andrea Giannecchini (entrepreneur and president of CNA Lucca) as president until June 2026. Michela Fucile (entrepreneur and president of Confartigianato Imprese Lucca) will hold the position of president until the end of the three-year term.

This was announced in a note by Confartigianato Imprese Toscana
“For Confartigianato Imprese Toscana and CNA Toscana” – explains Confartigianato Imprese Toscana in a note– “the presidency of the District to artisan businesses is a recognition of the importance of the supply chain and the need for trade associations, the Region, the University and Research Centers to work as a team to create new opportunities for businesses”.

The call for the craft industry to the presidency and the agreement on alternation met with unanimous consensus from all members of the District and was also welcomed by the regional councilor for productive activities and the economy, Leonardo Marras, who chaired the plenary assembly and who declared:

“I welcomed the conclusion of the work of the steering committee of this technological district. All the components expressed great maturity and the representation of the artisan world found a solution that gives the sense of the decisive contribution of small businesses within the entire supply chain through a sort of relay. All this should be greeted with a big double good luck, therefore, not only to the president-elect Andrea Giannecchini, but also to the future president Michela Fucile. And at the same time, appreciation should be expressed for the availability shown to the world of large shipyards and industry that have fully understood this message”.
