La macchina dei soccorsi toscana ha affrontato una prova sul campo per valutare la tenuta delle proprie strutture di fronte alle ondate di maltempo più severe. Nella giornata di ieri, la Protezione civile della Regione Toscana ha coordinato una maxi-esercitazione che ha visto l’attivazione simultanea di 146 Comuni, 20 Unioni di Comuni e gestioni associate, oltre alle Province e alla Città Metropolitana di Firenze.

L’operazione è consistita in una simulazione ‘per posti di comando’ gestita interamente da remoto, configurandosi come un test senza precedenti nel territorio regionale sia per il numero di enti coinvolti sia per le modalità digitali utilizzate. Lo scenario ricreato ha riprodotto una situazione di forte criticità legata a un’emergenza meteo, con la riproduzione di danni al suolo e pericoli per la popolazione dovuti a problemi idraulici e idrogeologici, come allagamenti o smottamenti. Di fronte al rischio ipotizzato, le amministrazioni locali hanno avuto il compito di avviare le contromisure previste nei rispettivi piani di emergenza.

Durante la simulazione, il personale di ciascun ente ha dovuto applicare i protocolli di sicurezza per verificare i tempi e le capacità di reazione della propria struttura, definendo se e quando richiedere l’aiuto sussidiario dei livelli istituzionali superiori, dalle Unioni di Comuni fino alla Regione. La prova si è concentrata in modo particolare sul ruolo dei sindaci, i quali, in qualità di autorità locali di protezione civile, hanno potuto sfruttare l’occasione per analizzare l’efficienza dei propri uffici e pianificare eventuali correttivi organizzativi o procedurali. L’intento finale era ottimizzare il coordinamento complessivo della rete toscana per rendere gli interventi reali più rapidi e integrati.

Il presidente della Regione, Eugenio Giani, ha commentato lo svolgimento delle attività evidenziandone l’utilità: “La nostra Protezione civile si conferma ancora una volta una macchina straordinaria, questa volta capace di coinvolgere all’unisono ben 146 Comuni della Toscana per un’esercitazione senza precedenti. Occasioni come questa sono importanti per testare i meccanismi di un sistema complesso e produrre delle osservazioni utili per migliorare ed essere pronti in caso di reali emergencies”.

Al bilancio del governatore si sono uniti i ringraziamenti di Bernard Dika, sottosegretario alla Presidenza regionale, che ha rimarcato la solidità del sistema: “Ringrazio le donne e gli uomini del nostro sistema di Protezione civile che non si fermano mai, mossi costantemente dal desiderio di migliorare a beneficio della sicurezza delle comunità. Il coinvolgimento simultaneo di Regione, Comuni e Province dimostra quanto sia solida e coordinata la nostra rete territoriale. Continuiamo a investire per consentire alla Toscana di affrontare con prontezza eventi meteo sempre più intensi”.

1,000th T150 turbojet engine produced in 2026 at Destinus’ Hengelo facility, marking a propulsion milestone for scalable cruise missile manufacturing. 

AMSTERDAM, June 18, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Destinus has reached a significant production milestone, completing its 1,000th T150 turbojet engine in 2026. Developed and manufactured in-house in Europe, the T150 powers the Ruta B1 and Ruta B2 cruise missile family, supporting serial production and operational deployment. The milestone strengthens Europe’s ability to produce cruise-class propulsion at an industrial scale. 

Propulsion remains a critical bottleneck in scalable cruise missile production. The T150 program directly addresses this constraint with a turbojet engine developed from scratch by Destinus and manufactured on a European production line built for repeatable, qualification-driven output. The engine supports current Ruta output and provides a scalable propulsion base for continued production ramp-up. 

“Producing one engine is engineering. Producing a thousand is industrial capability,” said Sidney Berndt, Destinus’ Chief Manufacturing Officer. “The T150 was built from scratch. The design, tooling, test infrastructure, supply chain and quality control were all developed and are owned by Destinus. What you see here is not a prototype line. It is a European production system that can sustain the production of thousands of missile systems per year.” 

Destinus’ vertically integrated approach to propulsion is central to its industrial model. By controlling engine design and manufacturing in-house, Destinus reduces dependency on external propulsion suppliers, which has historically limited European cruise missile production rates. The T150 production line is designed for continuous ramp-up, supporting both current Ruta output and planned capacity expansion, including through the Rheinmetall Destinus Strike Systems joint venture. 

The production of the 1,000th engine follows Destinus’ recent announcement of Ruta B3, a long-range strike system with a range of 2,000 km, powered by the next-generation T220 turbojet engine, also being developed in-house. The T150 and T220 together form a propulsion family designed to power key parts of Destinus’ cruise missile portfolio. 

A video marking this milestone featuring Destinus Chief Manufacturing Officer Sidney Bernt at the production facility is available at [link].

NEW YORK, June 18, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — On the heels of the 2026 Group of Seven (G7) Summit in France, Potential Energy Coalition, with financial support from The Rockefeller Foundation, today released Fixing Climate Communications, a new evidence-based playbook for communicating about climate more effectively across six of the G7 countries. Drawing on research with more than 83,000 adults across France, Germany, Italy, United Kingdom, United States, and Canada — countries that together represent more than 40% of global gross domestic product (GDP) — the study identifies the messages that broaden support across ideological divides and the language that can undermine it, offering practical guidance at a time when many institutions are embracing a growing trend of climate hushing. Shared concerns – pollution, health, affordability, energy security, and protecting future generations – increased support by more than 10 percentage points across the six countries, and by contrast, messages emphasizing bans, mandates, disruption, or “net zero” consistently underperformed everywhere. 

“The climate crisis is already making it harder for people around the world to feed their families, get and work jobs, and pursue lives of dignity. Meeting this challenge with the urgency it demands requires speaking about it in ways that resonate and motivate. This research shows how data-driven communication can shape a better conversation about how to tackle the climate crisis and build a safer and more prosperous future,” said Dr. Rajiv J. Shah, President, The Rockefeller Foundation. 

According to the World Bank, an additional 14.5–15.6 million people could die in low- and middle-income countries from climate-related causes by 2050 if the current trajectory continues. Globally, extreme heat kills an average of one person every minute, and workers around the world lost 640 billion hours of potential work – almost double what was typical in the 1990s – per last year’s Lancet Countdown Report. 

Despite the stakes for humanity’s well-being, there has been a broad, persistent retreat in public language about climate. Recent GlobeScan research underscores the rise of climate hushing: across 31 markets, the share of consumers seeing sustainability messaging fell from 49% in 2023 to 36% in 2025, while trust in those messages dropped from 79% to 65%. Global news coverage of climate change fell 38% by the end of 2025 from the peak in 2021, and mentions of climate and ESG issues on S&P 500 earnings calls have dropped by roughly three-quarters during this period. 

“Climate is a winning issue when communicated effectively. Climate hushing is short-sighted and ineffective; the data refutes the growing conventional wisdom that leaders should avoid talking about climate and rely only on a side door of clean energy or economic benefits. This is not about whether to talk about climate, but how – moving beyond narrow, easily politicized frames and connecting instead to the real material costs, impacts, and everyday concerns that can significantly expand public support,” said John Marshall, Executive Chair at Potential Energy Coalition. 

Key Findings:The research finds that climate solutions continue to command broad, cross-ideological support across all six countries, and that how the issue is communicated matters. 

The findings are based on two rounds of international research conducted by Potential Energy Coalition, commissioned by The Rockefeller Foundation, with fieldwork by Echelon Insights and Merlin Strategy, as well as six years of Potential Energy Coalition’s historical data. From September through December 2025, 83,971 adults across various age groups, genders, regions, education levels, ethnicities, and political perspectives were surveyed across the United States, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Italy, and Canada. The research identifies three evidence-based principles for more effective climate communication – and the data shows they work. After exposure to a single effective message built on these principles, support increased by at least 9 points in every country tested: 

Additional findings include, but are not limited to: 

Country Breakdown:Representing more than 40% of global gross domestic product (GDP) combined: 

With plans to expand the current study to Argentina, Brazil, Chile, China, Colombia, India, Indonesia, Mexico, Nigeria, South Africa, and Türkiye in the coming months, Fixing Climate Communications is the latest research to be commissioned by The Rockefeller Foundation’s Build the Shared Future Initiative, through which the 113-year-old philanthropic organization aims to inspire and inform global cooperation and international development work that matches the challenges of the 21st century, including efforts to align with governments around the world – with a focus on Sub-Saharan Africa – to identify country-led solutions to maximize every dollar of remaining aid and to stimulate new investments.

Note to Editors: 

About the ResearchFixing Climate Communications is based on two rounds of international research conducted by the Potential Energy Coalition in partnership with The Rockefeller Foundation, with fieldwork by Echelon Insights and Merlin Strategy between September and December 2025. 

Round 1 — Qualitative Research (September 2025)Moderated online focus groups were conducted with 133 participants across the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany, and Canada. Participants who believe climate change is happening but are only somewhat worried about it were screened to understand how less climate-engaged but potentially persuadable audiences respond to alternative climate messaging. The research explored participants’ broader national mood, core personal priorities, climate concern, perceived barriers to action, and reactions to specific climate messages and messengers. 

Round 2 — Quantitative Research (November–December 2025)Two large-scale quantitative studies were conducted across all six countries: 

National Survey (~42,000 respondents, ~7,500 per country, ~4,000 in Canada): Measured the climate landscape, baseline attitudes, issue priority rankings, and how climate compares to adjacent energy, pollution, nature, and cost-of-living frames. Each country sample was weighted by age, gender, education, past vote, and region to ensure nationally representative results. 

Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) Message Test (~41,100 respondents, ~6,500 per country, ~8,500 in the US): Tested 11 climate narratives against a control group to identify which most effectively moved public opinion. The 11 narratives tested were: 

Head-to-head competitive test reflects how often each of the following eight pro-climate messages are favored over the strongest opposition message – ‘Climate limitations means families pay higher bills’ – when respondents chose between pro- and anti-climate messages simultaneously: 

In total, the research captures the views of 83,971 people worldwide. 

About Potential Energy Coalition:Potential Energy Coalition is a 501(c)(3) purpose-built communications capability that significantly accelerates climate progress through narrative shifts and proven marketing strategies.

LONDRA, 18 giugno 2026 /PRNewswire/ — QS Quacquarelli Symonds 

L’Italia è l’unico grande sistema universitario dell’Unione Europea a registrare una crescita netta nel QS World University Rankings 2027, pubblicato oggi da QS Quacquarelli Symonds. Dei 47 atenei italiani classificati, 26 migliorano la propria posizione e 15 arretrano, mentre Germania, Francia, Spagna e Paesi Bassi vedono la maggioranza delle proprie università perdere terreno. 

Il progresso italiano è diffuso. Tutte le prime dieci università del Paese migliorano la propria posizione e l’Italia conta oggi 15 università nella top 500 mondiale, rispetto alle 12 del 2017. 

Il Politecnico di Milano si conferma la migliore università italiana per il dodicesimo anno consecutivo. Salendo di 11 posizioni, raggiunge l’87° posto mondiale, il miglior risultato della sua storia e il più alto piazzamento mai ottenuto da un’università italiana. Rimane inoltre l’unico ateneo nazionale nella top 100 globale. 

Alle sue spalle, Sapienza Università di Roma raggiunge il miglior risultato della sua storia all’111° posto mondiale, seguita dall’Università di Bologna al 123° posto, dall’Università di Padova al 204° e dal Politecnico di Torino al 206°, anch’essi ai massimi storici. 

Tra i grandi sistemi universitari europei, l’Italia è l’unica a registrare un saldo positivo tra atenei in crescita e in calo. Migliora il 56% delle università italiane, contro il 16% di Germania e Francia, il 5% della Spagna e l’8% dei Paesi Bassi. 

“I risultati di quest’anno sono incoraggianti, ma la prossima sfida per l’Italia è trasformare l’eccellenza accademica in maggiore visibilità internazionale, afferma Nunzio Quacquarelli, Presidente di QS Quacquarelli Symonds. I dati mostrano che molte università italiane producono ricerca di livello mondiale ma esiste ancora un divario tra la qualità che il sistema esprime e il riconoscimento che riceve a livello globale. In mondo sempre più competitivo per attrarre talenti, investimenti e collaborazioni, non basta essere eccellenti: bisogna anche essere visibili. Un’università che il mondo vede è un’università che il mondo è più propenso a scegliere. Oggi l’Italia non può più permettersi il lusso di un’eccellenza silenziosa.” 

La ricerca continua a rappresentare uno dei principali punti di forza del sistema italiano. Università Vita-Salute San Raffaele si colloca tra le prime dieci università al mondo per Citazioni per Docente, mentre l’Università degli Studi di Brescia entra per la prima volta nella top 100 mondiale dell’indicatore. 

Nonostante i progressi, restano alcune sfide strutturali. Nessuna università italiana figura tra le prime 100 al mondo per docenti o studenti internazionali e solo un ateneo nazionale è presente nella top 100 della classifica generale.

FIRENZE – L’estate inizia a fare sul serio e a Firenze scatta l’allerta per l’ondata di calore in arrivo. Le previsioni meteo non lasciano spazio a dubbi: a causa di un repentino e costante aumento delle temperature, sul capoluogo toscano scatterà il codice arancione per il caldo nelle giornate di domani (18 giugno) e di venerdì. Un livello di attenzione elevato che attiva i protocolli di protezione civile e monitoraggio per i soggetti più fragili.

La tendenza al rialzo della colonnina di mercurio è comunque già evidente nella giornata di oggi per la quale è previsto il codice giallo con una temperatura massima percepita di ben 34 gradi. Che l’aria si stesse scaldando rapidamente lo si è capito fin dalle prime ore della mattinata: secondo una nota diffusa da Palazzo Vecchio, la stazione meteo dell’Orto Botanico aveva già raggiunto i 30,2 gradi alle 9,45, mentre poco più tardi, alle 10,10, la stazione di Firenze Università registrava 28,6 gradi.

La fiammata africana non risparmierà il resto della regione. Per venerdì (19 giugno), infatti, i meteorologi del consorzio Lamma prevedono un ulteriore e sensibile aumento delle temperature su tutta la Toscana, con la massa d’aria calda che spingerà i termometri fino a punte massime comprese tra i 36 e i 38 gradi nelle pianure interne.

La raccomandazione delle autorità sanitarie resta quella di evitare l’esposizione diretta al sole e le attività fisiche intense nelle ore centrali della giornata, mantenendo una corretta idratazione.

PRESS RELEASE 

Bloomberg (THEON:NA) / Reuters (THEON.AS) 

17 June 2026 – Theon International Plc (THEON)  announces that it has entered into an exclusivity agreement with Carlyle for the acquisition of SAS Stéropès, the holding company of SAS HGH Systèmes Infrarouges (HGH) for an enterprise value of approximately €300 million.  

HGH designs, develops, assembles and markets electro-optical and infrared solutions systems for Defense and Civil applications. The company was founded in 1982 in France and currently employs more than 130 people with a primary focus in R&D. 

HGH has a highly agile and IP-driven business model that is fully compatible with THEON. The acquisition would broaden THEON’s Multi-Domain ISR (Platform Electro-Optics) product portfolio and company’s counter drone (C-UAS) solutions. These are supported by advanced detection and classification capabilities based on HGH’s proprietary ITAR free technology using unique and patented AI features. 

This is a significant milestone in THEON’s strategy to rapidly establish itself as a leader in platform electro-optics. It follows the acquisition of Kappa Optronics and its recently announced order buildup, the investment in ShockEOS and the subsequent selection of THEON’s PHYLAX gimbal by Rheinmetall and the Joint Venture with Safran for the creation of Unmanned Aerial System (UAS) electro-optics. The above demonstrate that THEON’s approach is already generating tangible commercial results and the addition of HGH would materially increase the contribution of Multi-Domain ISR to THEON’S revenue and profitability. 

This agreement reinforces THEON’s strategic commitment to France, further expanding its industrial base and strengthening its connection to the French supplier and customer communities. France will become an important export hub for THEON, as well as an AI R&D center, building on HGH’s current AI capabilities.  

Deal Structure 

THEON is to acquire 100% of HGH at a mid- to high-teens EV/EBITDA multiple pre-synergies and at c. 10x post the full impact of run-rate synergies by year 2 to 3. The acquisition is expected to be EBITDA margin accretive and mid-single-digit EPS accretive in 2027. 

HGH has c. €40 million of revenues and has had a revenue growth trajectory of ca. 30% CAGR since 2023 with an EBITDA margin in excess of 40%. At the time of the agreement, HGH had an order backlog of c. €70 million. Post-closing, the management team and employees will remain in HGH and will be incentivized to continue driving strong business performance. 

The transaction will be financed with a bridge facility provided by BNP Paribas, which is intended to be fully refinanced with debt. No equity capital increase is expected. 

Christian Hadjiminas, Founder and CEO of THEON, commented: “This milestone marks the next step in strengthening our export-oriented presence in France and accelerating our expansion into Multi-Domain ISR. HGH is a European pioneer, with a unique offering of high-performance systems with embedded AI capabilities. At THEON, we are building a new European defense electro-optics champion by integrating man-portable and platform-based systems into an interconnected ecosystem that enhances situational awareness and delivers advanced decision-making capabilities to our customers.” 

Vincent Leboucher, President and CEO of HGH, commented: “We are excited to be in exclusive discussions to join forces with THEON to bring HGH’s unique products and capabilities to a broader universe of customers around the world. HGH management is fully aligned with THEON’s strategic vision and business plan and is confident that THEON is well placed to expand HGH’s commercial reach and generate R&D synergies. Like THEON, HGH is an innovation-driven company that prides itself on delivering for customers – we look forward to the prospect of what we will be able to build together.” 

Rothschild & Co is acting as sole financial advisor to THEON, PwC performed the Finance, Tax and Legal Due Diligence, while Bredin Prat is acting as lead counsel. 

Execution of the Share Purchase Agreement would follow upon completion of the statutory works council (CSE) process. Closing is subject to customary conditions, including regulatory approvals and would be expected to take place by Q4 2026. 

Company Profile 

HGH has unique innovation capabilities, underpinned by a proprietary patent portfolio. It has developed proprietary software solutions, enhanced with Artificial Intelligence and Augmented Intelligence features, enabling highly differentiated capabilities in the automatic detection and classification of threats over long distances. With these capabilities, it is uniquely positioned to capture the structurally increasing demand in the transforming defense and security markets, fueled by evolving threats and warfare technologies and a reallocation of spending toward relevant applications – notably air-defense and counter-UAS. 

Management and R&D are based in France and HGH operates globally to remain close to its customers and meet their specific technical and quality requirements.

Your Cup. Your PressThe flavor of simplicity.Four parts. 1-minute infusion. One cup that’s worth pouring properly. Prestina uses the cup itself to drive the press — no electricity, no paper filters, no compromise. 

HONG KONG, June 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Wacaco Company Limited, the Hong Kong-based portable coffee equipment brand known for rethinking how quality coffee can be brewed anywhere, today announced the launch of Prestina, a patented manual immersion brewer that replaces the traditional piston with the cup itself. Compact, paper-free, and entirely hand-powered, Prestina is Wacaco’s most minimal brewer to date — and a new expression of the brand’s mission to make better coffee possible wherever people go.Prestina is designed around a simple ritual: add 15 g of medium-ground coffee, pour 240 ml of water at around 90 °C, stir gently, infuse for one minute, then press down with the cup until the brew is complete. The result is a rich, full-bodied cup with the depth of an immersion brew and a cleaner finish than a traditional French press. Its integrated stainless steel filter preserves the coffee’s natural oils while eliminating paper filters, capsules, and other consumables.The complete six-piece kit includes the brewer body, portafilter, cup, lid, spoon, and drip tray. When packed, the brewer and cup nest together into a single compact unit measuring 134 × 85 × 85 mm and weighing 254 g — small enough for a desk drawer, carry-on, weekend bag, or campsite coffee setup. 

“With Prestina, we wanted to strip manual brewing back to its most essential form. The breakthrough was realizing the cup did not have to be separate from the brewing mechanism — it could become part of it. That allowed us to create something simpler, smaller, and easier to use, without losing the richness people expect from an immersion brew.” 

— Hugo Cailleton, Co-Founder and Chief Designer, Wacaco 

Prestina is available in three colourways — Sage Green, Clay Pink, and Coal Black — at a retail price of USD $29.90. It is available at wacaco.com, select online marketplaces, and through Wacaco’s global retail partners. The Prestina will be showcased at World of Coffee Brussels from June 25–27.

HONG KONG SAR –
Media OutReach Newswire
– 17 June 2026 – Frost & Sullivan, a globally renowned growth consulting firm, has released its “2026 AI Infrastructure Orchestration Platform White Paper”. The report recognizes Phancy Group’s Rise vGPU as a Tier 1 Leading Platform, the highest maturity tier in heterogeneous GPU orchestration. Phancy’s ModelHub also achieved the highest Overall Score in the enterprise-grade model management platform evaluation. This marks a significant endorsement of Phancy’s technological capability in heterogeneous AI infrastructure. 

According to the white paper, as large model applications scale rapidly, China’s AI industry is facing structural challenges stemming from multi-chip coexistence. These include hardware heterogeneity, fragmented software stacks, persistently low GPU utilization (generally below 30%), and rising model adaptation complexity — all of which have become major bottlenecks for enterprise-scale AI deployment. 

The report highlights a fundamental shift in AI infrastructure competitiveness – moving away from “single-chip performance” toward “cluster-scale system coordination.” At this critical juncture, Phancy has positioned itself as a leader in advanced orchestration through its full-stack AI infrastructure platform, offering a proven solution to heterogeneous compute challenges and helping drive China’s AI industry from “compute accumulation” into a new era of “compute orchestration.” 

Phancy Rise vGPU: Tier 1 Leading Platform
 

In its assessment of mainstream AI infrastructure platforms, Frost & Sullivan defined Tier 1 criteria across three core dimensions: heterogeneous support, fine-grained control, and production-grade execution. Phancy Rise vGPU meets all three standards and has been recognized as a Tier 1 Leading Platform. 

Rise vGPU transforms AI infrastructure from fragmented, low-efficiency device-level management to a unified software-defined control plane. Its key technology breakthroughs include: 

– Comprehensive Heterogeneous Management: Unified onboarding and management across more than 10 mainstream GPU/NPU vendors, including NVIDIA, Ascend, Cambricon, Hygon, and others. 

– Ultra-Fine Resource Partitioning: Industry-leading sub-GPU level compute and MB-level memory granularity slicing. 

– Significant Utilization Improvement: Through safe oversubscription and time/space multiplexing, GPU utilization is increased from industry averages below 30% to 70%-90%. 

– Intelligent Precision Scheduling: Multi-dimensional scheduling algorithms based on priority, topology, load, and resource awareness to achieve optimal compute allocation. 

– Production-Grade SLA Assurance: The Deterministic Execution Layer delivers committed and auditable SLA guarantees for critical inference workloads. 

– Full Lifecycle Operability: Comprehensive monitoring, metering, and cost allocation capabilities that turn GPU resources into truly operable digital assets. 

Model Hub: Highest Overall Score in Model Management Platform Evaluation
 

Beyond compute orchestration, the report underscores the strategic importance of enterprise-grade model management platforms. As a powerful complement to Rise vGPU, Phancy ModelHub enables enterprises to build a complete full-stack AI infrastructure — from compute to models and from resource scheduling to business delivery. 

The white paper notes that Phancy ModelHub delivers leading performance in key areas such as Model & Chip Compatibility, Execution Stability & Performance, and Model-GPU Coordination & Scheduling, achieving the highest Overall Score. Through its unified model management and execution platform, ModelHub creates a seamless closed-loop process covering model onboarding, deployment optimization, inference services, and version governance — significantly lowering the barrier to model deployment and accelerating AI innovation. 

Dr. Dai Wenyuan, Founder & CEO of Phancy, said: “The Frost & Sullivan white paper accurately captures the inflection point in AI infrastructure development. The recognition of Rise vGPU as a Tier 1 Leading Platform and ModelHub’s top Overall Score provide important authoritative validation of Phancy’s technology strategy and product strength. As a full-stack AI cloud service platform, Phancy believes the next wave of competitiveness in the AI industry will come from systematic improvements in compute orchestration efficiency. We will continue to focus on heterogeneous compute unified scheduling and model ecosystem operations, working closely with customers and industry partners to advance China’s AI industry from ‘compute accumulation’ to a true ‘compute orchestration’ era.”

Cernusco sul Naviglio, 18 giugno 2026 – Sono 400 i collaboratori e le collaboratrici coinvolti, organizzati in 20 squadre nazionali e affiancati da 15 squadre internazionali: sono questi i numeri che raccontano la crescita del progetto sportivo di PENNY Italia, che nel 2026 si consolida con la quarta edizione della PENNY Volley Cup, la terza edizione della PENNY Volley Champions League e la prima edizione della PENNY Football Cup. 

Un’iniziativa strutturata che, anno dopo anno, si rafforza come esperienza diffusa su tutto il territorio, capace di trasformare lo sport in uno strumento concreto di connessione tra persone, funzioni e Paesi del Gruppo. 

Il calendario 2026 entra subito nel vivo con i primi appuntamenti “cartello”: domenica 21 giugno a Roma si disputerà la giornata di andata delle squadre del Sud, seguita il 27 giugno dalla tappa dedicata alle squadre del Nord. Il percorso proseguirà poi con le gare di ritorno nel mese di ottobre, per concludersi con le super finali nel primo weekend di novembre. 

Nel corso dell’anno, la PENNY Volley Cup e la PENNY Football Cup coinvolgono collaboratori provenienti da punti vendita, piattaforme logistiche e sede, impegnati in un percorso articolato su più tappe territoriali che conduce alle finali nazionali. Un modello che favorisce l’incontro tra ruoli e background diversi, contribuendo a consolidare relazioni e senso di appartenenza. 

Le finali rappresentano anche l’accesso alla dimensione internazionale: i team vincitori formano la nazionale PENNY Italia, che nel calcio partecipa alla REWE Cup e nel volley rappresenta il Paese nella PENNY Volley Champions League. 

Giunta alla sua terza edizione, la PENNY Volley Champions League vede la partecipazione delle nazionali delle insegne del Gruppo – REWE, BILLA, PENNY e IKI – in un torneo che unisce competizione sportiva e scambio culturale, valorizzando l’internazionalità e il senso di appartenenza a un gruppo europeo. 

Novità del 2026 è la PENNY Football Cup, che affianca la consolidata esperienza della PENNY Volley Cup, ampliando ulteriormente le opportunità di partecipazione e portando gli stessi valori di collaborazione, inclusione e spirito di squadra anche nel calcio. 

All’interno di questo percorso, lo sport si conferma leva concreta per promuovere stili di vita attivi, attenzione alla salute e alla sana alimentazione e, al tempo stesso, per rafforzare relazioni autentiche anche in contesti informali. Momenti di gioco e aggregazione diventano così parte integrante di una cultura aziendale basata su partecipazione, benessere e condivisione. 

A sostenere l’iniziativa contribuiscono partner che condividono il valore dello sport come strumento sociale e culturale. Accanto a MAXFIVE, main sponsor fin dalla prima edizione e promotore del claim “La sfida che unisce”, l’edizione 2026 vede il coinvolgimento di Pagani Industrie Alimentari S.p.A., Le Naturelle e TIA – Tecnologie Industriali & Ambientali S.p.A., realtà che supportano il progetto contribuendo a generare valore anche sul territorio. 

“Le PENNY Volley Cup e la PENNY Football Cup rappresentano molto più di un appuntamento sportivo,” dichiara Marcello Caldarella, Corporate Communications Manager & Spokesperson di PENNY Italia. “Sono esperienze che mettono al centro le persone e creano connessioni reali tra colleghi, anche oltre i contesti di lavoro. Lo sport diventa un linguaggio comune capace di unire e rafforzare una cultura aziendale inclusiva e internazionale”.

Roma 16/06/2026 – Il 19 giugno 2026 il Museum of Modern Art di New York si svolgerà un evento dedicato all’Atlante dell’Arte Contemporanea, prestigiosa pubblicazione di riferimento per studiosi, curatori, collezionisti e operatori del settore, prodotta da START Group, partner ufficiale del MoMA. 

Nell’ambito di questa iniziativa sarà dedicato un approfondimento alla ricerca artistica di Marco Manzo, artista visivo, tatuatore, scultore e designer di fama internazionale, il cui percorso ha contribuito negli ultimi anni ad ampliare il dibattito sul riconoscimento del tatuaggio come linguaggio dell’arte contemporanea. 

L’Atlante dell’Arte Contemporanea accoglie infatti un estratto del Manifesto del Tatuaggio Artistico Contemporaneo, il testo con cui Manzo affronta uno dei temi più rilevanti della disciplina: il riconoscimento del tatuaggio come espressione artistica contemporanea, opera certificabile e patrimonio culturale da studiare, conservare e valorizzare. 

L’approfondimento dedicato a Marco Manzo si articolerà in due momenti, mattina e pomeriggio, curati da Stefania Pieralice, curatrice d’arte contemporanea e studiosa impegnata da anni nell’analisi dei linguaggi artistici contemporanei. Due momenti distinti ma uniti da un unico filo conduttore: il rapporto tra corpo, pensiero e creazione artistica. 

Nella sessione mattutina, Stefania Pieralice ripercorre il percorso artistico di Marco Manzo, evidenziando le tappe che hanno contribuito a ridefinire il ruolo del tatuaggio nel panorama dell’arte contemporanea: dalle performance artistiche alle partecipazioni alla Biennale di Venezia e al Complesso del Vittoriano, fino alla mostra Tattoo Forever presso il Museo d’Arte Contemporanea MACRO di Roma, considerata da molti osservatori un momento di svolta nel dialogo tra tatuaggio e istituzioni culturali. 

Nel pomeriggio, il pubblico assisterà a una video-art performance in anteprima mondiale: una proiezione poetica sviluppata attraverso le nuove tecnologie e l’Intelligenza Artificiale, capace di animare tridimensionalmente le celebri 66 lastre radiografiche realizzate dall’artista per la Biennale di Architettura di Venezia. Le opere sono state successivamente esposte anche ad Art Basel Miami e alcune prove d’autore, provenienti da una collezione privata, sono state donate quasi integralmente al Metropolitan Museum of Art di New York. 

Il culmine dell’evento sarà rappresentato dalla presentazione integrale del Manifesto del Tatuaggio Artistico Contemporaneo, del quale l’Atlante pubblica un primo estratto. Attraverso una lettera aperta rivolta alle istituzioni museali internazionali, Marco Manzo propone una nuova prospettiva sul tatuaggio artistico: non più semplice decorazione del corpo, ma opera d’arte viva, capace di essere studiata, conservata, certificata e collezionata. L’evento rappresenterà anche un importante momento istituzionale, durante il quale è prevista la firma ufficiale da parte dell’artista Manzo e Pieralice, alla presenza delle istituzioni coinvolte. Questo passaggio sancirà concretamente l’impegno condiviso tra i soggetti partecipanti e rafforzerà il valore artistico e istituzionale . 

Nel Manifesto, Manzo annuncia inoltre la nascita del Catalogo Ragionato Marco Manzo e dell’Archivio Marco Manzo, strumenti destinati a raccogliere, documentare e certificare la sua produzione artistica. Da questo percorso prende forma un sistema di certificazione delle opere finalizzato a garantire autenticità, tracciabilità, tutela e riconoscibilità culturale. 

L’obiettivo del Manifesto va tuttavia oltre il percorso personale dell’artista. La visione proposta da Manzo intende aprire una riflessione più ampia sul futuro del tatuaggio artistico contemporaneo, offrendo agli artisti meritevoli la possibilità di vedere le proprie opere certificate, archiviate e riconosciute secondo criteri condivisi. In questa prospettiva, il tatuaggio può diventare un’opera collezionabile a tutti gli effetti, capace di entrare nelle collezioni private e pubbliche attraverso processi di tutela, documentazione e valorizzazione analoghi a quelli adottati per le altre discipline artistiche. 

A testimoniare il legame tra corpo, materia e trascendenza, la video-art performance presenterà 22 opere inedite all’interno della prestigiosa sala e anche una scultura in marmo di Carrara derivata dallo stesso blocco utilizzato dall’artista per realizzare la celebre Maddalena Pacificata, custodita nella Chiesa dei Miracoli di Piazza del Popolo a Roma.Dallo stesso blocco di marmo sono sono nate anche le 20 mani andate in mostra alla Biennale d’Arte di Venezia.

MONTREAL, June 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Airmedic, a leader in specialized air medical transport, today unveiled a new medical cabin purpose-built for its Bombardier Learjet 45XR aircraft. Already in service aboard the first aircraft, this permanent clinical environment supports patient transport while setting a new benchmark for critical care in flight. 

Born from firsthand operational experience, this permanent medical configuration improves clinical access, optimizes the work of medical crews, and ensures immediate availability of essential equipment, enabling flight crews to manage complex transports with greater precision, efficiency, and comfort. 

“This investment reflects our commitment to excellence in in-flight care,” said Louis-Philippe Loiselle Fortier, Vice-President, Strategic Initiatives and Business Development at Airmedic. “By analyzing how missions actually unfold, we designed a cabin that removes obstacles for our crews, strengthens clinical continuity, and provides a safer, more comfortable, and better-controlled environment for patients and their loved ones during both short- and long-haul repatriation flights.” 

Airmedic invested in a completely redesigned permanent medical interior. Developed in close collaboration with the engineering teams at Fargo Jet Center and certified by both the FAA and Transport Canada through a Supplemental Type Certificate, this state-of-the-art cabin was shaped by direct feedback from the crews, clients, and patients it serves. 

Key Innovations for Critical Care Transport 

The enhanced cabin features an advanced LifePort stretcher system, a stainless steel-clad composite sidewall panel for hygiene and durability, and a custom medical cabinet that keeps essential equipment protected and immediately accessible. Specialized overhead rails allow medical devices to be secured above the care area, including the defibrillator monitor, transport ventilator, and intravenous therapy units, keeping critical equipment within ergonomic reach of the patient. An expanded loading clearance also facilitates patient handling, including bariatric cases and incubator transports, while medical-grade surfaces allow for effective decontamination between missions, and a custom privacy curtain preserves patient dignity during flight. A new Skytrac ISAT-200A satellite communication (SATCOM) and flight-tracking system further enhances in-flight coordination by allowing crews to consult with physicians hands-free, without interrupting care. 

Together, these improvements create a structured clinical workspace that supports decisive intervention during critical care transports, while enhancing overall patient comfort, dignity, and safety. 

Investing in the Advancement of International Patient Repatriation 

The Learjet 45XR configuration represents the first step in a broader fleet modernization strategy. A second aircraft is already slated to receive an identical permanent medical configuration in the coming months, bringing the total investment in both cabin conversions to approximately two million Canadian dollars. These conversions are part of an overall $18 million Canadian commitment to Airmedic’s Bombardier Learjet 45XR fleet, which supports the expansion of its international medical repatriation program. 

“By permanently dedicating these aircraft to medical operations, Airmedic is reaffirming a clear priority: investing in reliable clinical environments designed for the realities of modern aeromedical transport, while continuing to raise the standard of care in the skies,” added Louis-Philippe Loiselle Fortier. 

Rooted in Quebec, Reaching the World 

Beyond international repatriation missions, these aircraft remain available at all times to support Quebec’s communities and healthcare network for urgent inter-hospital transfers. This local commitment remains at the heart of Airmedic’s mission, having expanded its service offering over the past three years to reach an international scope, both through air ambulance operations (its fleet of Pilatus PC-12 NG and Bombardier Learjet 45XR aircraft) and through medical escort services on commercial flights. Strategically based in Montreal, a key transatlantic hub between Europe and the Americas, and holding EURAMI international accreditation, Airmedic combines a Quebec foundation with a global reach. 

About Airmedic
