VENICE, Italy, 17 giugno 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Di seguito è riportata la relazione completa： 

Il padiglione cinese alla 61esima Esposizione Internazionale d’Arte – La Biennale di Venezia: Dream Stream：un dialogo poetico di conoscenza reciproca tra la civiltà cinese e quella italiana 

Il presidente cinese Xi Jinping una volta citò lo scrittore italiano Alberto Moravia: “l’amicizia non si sceglie casualmente, ma è il risultato di aspirazioni condivise.” La mostra Dream Stream nel padiglione cinese alla 61esima Esposizione Internazionale d’Arte – La Biennale di Venezia all’Arsenale, che ha aperto i battenti l’8 maggio, è una vivida rappresentazione di questo spirito. 

La mostra è curata dal Museo d’Arte dell’Accademia d’Arte cinese (CAA). Yu Xuhong, il curatore, ha spiegato che Dream Stream (Mengxi) prende il nome dai Dream Stream Essays (Mengxi Bitan) di Shen Kuo, uno scrittore della dinastia dei Song settentrionali. Dialogando con il tono introspettivo del tema generale della Biennale In tonalità minori, svela la vitalità della cultura orientale nell’era digitale con una poetica di fluidità e profonde riflessioni filosofiche. 

Gli scambi culturali tra Cina e Italia hanno una lunga storia. Dall’antica Via della Seta al Milione di Marco Polo, i popoli dei due paesi sono sempre stati attratti l’uno dall’altro. Nel novembre 2024, la mostra “Il sentiero perfetto: Hangzhou, la ‘Città del cielo’ di Marco Polo,” co-organizzata dall’Accademia d’Arte cinese e da La Biennale di Venezia, si è aperta ad Hangzhou. Il presidente italiano Sergio Mattarella l’ha elogiata: “una mostra perfetta, una scuola eccellente.” La mostra ha fatto sì che per la prima volta in 130 anni la Biennale di Venezia si sia spostata fuori dall’Italia, a segnare un nuovo livello nella cooperazione culturale Cina-Italia. 

Questo padiglione cinese mette insieme dieci gruppi di lavoro, quali Black Myth: Wukong, 2027 Shen Guo, Liangzhu Highlight, Symbiosi, Free and Easy Wandering, Solitary Hill, Plantain Rain, fra gli altri, coprendo diversi media come la game art, video, installazioni, pittura e calligrafia, presentando una simbiosi tra tradizioni e contemporaneità, arte e tecnologia. Il vice primo ministro Italiano Matteo Salvini, dopo aver visitato il padiglione, ha sottolineato come il padiglione cinese incarni non solo la storia e la cultura della Cina ma anche il suo futuro. Allo stesso tempo, il presidente della Biennale di Venezia, Pietrangelo Buttafuoco, ha dichiarato che il tema Dream Stream funge da portale, per guidare il pubblico nel sistema visivo e cognitivo orientale, “aggiungendo nuove note a margine negli scambi culturali Italia-Cina.” 

” Dream Stream” è un flusso che connette le civiltà, scorre con la poesia e ci guida al futuro. Il curatore Yu Xuhong spera che i visitatori del padiglione cinese possano provare l’esperienza della poesia e il fascino della cultura cinese, apprezzare la creatività e la vitalità dell’arte contemporanea cinese e sentire la tensione e il calore dell’arte nell’era dell’IA.

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: 

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.”

PISA – Il mondo della cultura piange la scomparsa di un intellettuale che ha rivoluzionato il modo di guardare al passato. Si è spento all’età di 87 anni lo storico Carlo Ginzburg, uno degli studiosi italiani più noti e tradotti a livello internazionale, il cui percorso scientifico e umano è rimasto indissolubilmente legato alla città toscana.

Nato a Torino il 15 aprile 1939, figlio del letterato antifascista Leone Ginzburg e della scrittrice Natalia Ginzburg, era arrivato all’ombra della torre pendente alla fine degli anni Cinquanta. Vincitore del concorso per la Scuola Normale Superiore, a Pisa visse gli anni decisivi della sua formazione universitaria, laureandosi in lettere nel 1961 e stringendo legami intellettuali che avrebbero orientato le sue primissime ricerche d’archivio sulla stregoneria e sui verbali del Sant’Uffizio.

L’approccio che ha reso celebre lo storico si basava sull’analisi di casi minuti e vicende individuali per comprendere dinamiche sociali di portata molto più ampia. Dopo aver insegnato a Bologna e nella prestigiosa università statunitense Ucla di Los Angeles, nel 2006 era tornato trionfalmente a Pisa, chiamato a ricoprire la cattedra di Storia delle culture d’Europa nell’ateneo di piazza dei Cavalieri, dove ha tenuto corsi affollatissimi fino al 2010 prima di ricevere il titolo di professore emerito.

Tra le sue opere più importanti figura I benandanti, pubblicato nel 1966 e nato proprio dagli stimoli metodologici maturati durante il soggiorno pisano. Dieci anni più tardi, nel 1976, diede alle stampe Il formaggio e i vermi, incentrato sulla figura del mugnaio cinquecentesco Domenico Scandella, detto Menocchio, un testo diventato un pilastro della letteratura storiografica mondiale.

Nel corso della sua carriera si era occupato anche di vicende giudiziarie contemporanee con il saggio Il giudice e lo storico del 1991, incentrato sul processo per l’omicidio del commissario Luigi Calabresi. In quel volume l’autore propose un parallelismo tra l’attività della magistratura e i criteri d’inchiesta dell’Inquisizione, ribadendo la necessità del ricorso alle prove materiali contro le correnti dello scetticismo.

Fermamente convinto che il ricercatore dovesse lasciarsi sorprendere dal caso, aveva collaborato con le maggiori case editrici italiane, trasferendo le sue pubblicazioni da Einaudi ad Adelphi, Feltrinelli e Quodlibet. La scomparsa di Carlo Ginzburg lascia un vuoto profondo negli studi sull’età moderna e nell’istituzione pisana che lo ha visto prima brillante allievo e poi docente di fama mondiale.

AMSTERDAM, June 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Central and Eastern European companies continue to balance cash and credit, with 54% of B2B sales paid at the point of sale and 46% made on credit. Yet the credit side is under strain. Late payments now affect 83% of suppliers with nearly one in three invoices overdue. Around six in ten companies cite customer liquidity pressure as the main cause of these delays, finds the Atradius Payment Practices Barometer Central and Eastern Europe, published today. 

Senior Advisor on B2B payment trends at Atradius, Silvia Ungaro, explains how sticky inflation, rising costs, and uncertainty are reshaping payment behaviour across the region: 

“At the core of this trend there is a widening liquidity gap. Inflation continues to lift costs across the region. When demand weakens, revenues fall, margins compress, and working capital tightens. This dynamic is now clearly visible across Central and Eastern Europe.” 

Survey findings highlight four key consequences for working capital. Reduced liquidity headroom is the most immediate impact, cited by about one third of businesses, followed by ongoing challenges in cash flow planning, and rising financing needs. Limited investment further reflects how constrained liquidity is beginning to affect longer term decisions. These trends also point to a greater use of trade credit as firms seek to sustain sales. 

With higher financing needs, companies are increasingly turning to external financing to bridge cash flow gaps. However, higher borrowing costs might make this more difficult, adding another layer of strain to already stretched balance sheets. 

Ungaro highlights how these forces may further intensify liquidity struggles: 

“The result is a cycle of pressure, where weaker customer credit quality, delayed payments, and rising financing needs reinforce each other. If interest rates rise in this depressed economic environment, the cost of accessing external funding will increase just as firms depend on it more, which risks deepening liquidity constraints rather than easing them.”

NEW YORK, June 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — 

Dear Fellow Shareholders of Workspace Group plc: 

We are writing today to provide an update on our campaign to maximise the value of Workspace Group plc (the “Company” or “Workspace”) for all shareholders. 

Saba Capital Management L.P. is the Company’s second largest shareholder and currently owns approximately 47.4 million shares, representing c. 24.7% of the outstanding share capital.[1] 

Background to our investment  

We began building our investment in Workspace on 5 August 2025, recognising what we believed to be a substantial disconnect between the Company’s share price and the underlying value of its property portfolio. We also saw a significant opportunity to reverse years of value destruction through a more disciplined strategy and stronger Board oversight. 

In our view, Workspace’s persistent discount to net asset value (“NAV”), the largest among 19 other comparable UK REITs,[2] reflects a combination of factors, including underperformance versus peers, an undervalued property portfolio, strategic inconsistency over time, and the changes in senior management over a relatively short period of time.   

On 20 November 2025, we met privately with the Company’s management team to discuss a proposal aimed at addressing the Company’s discount to NAV. We were disappointed by the lack of any meaningful engagement and the Board’s outright rejection of our proposal. As a result, we issued an open letter on 8 January 2026 outlining a clear path to unlocking shareholder value through an orderly strategic sale of the Company’s property portfolio, the systematic repayment of all outstanding debt, and a timely return of capital to shareholders. We requested that the Board adopt this proposal by no later than 20 February 2026. 

This discount to NAV represents a significant upside opportunity for Workspace shareholders: if the Company disposes of properties and uses the proceeds to repurchase shares, this generates an implied return of ~100% at the current 50% discount to NAV. 

The Board rejected our proposal characterising it as a ‘fire sale’ which would fail to realise full value. This characterisation was entirely inaccurate. From April 2025 to March 2026, Workspace sold or exchanged 13 properties at an average discount of 7.2% to book value[3] compared with the Company’s current share price discount to NAV of approximately 50%.[4] Furthermore, our analysis, supported by independent real estate experts, indicates that the market remains interested in a significantly accelerated disposal programme, above the Company’s conservative plans. 

Given the Board’s refusal to pursue what we believe is the clearest path to value realisation, we concluded that shareholders would be best served by a change in Board oversight. Accordingly, on 20 May 2026, we submitted a requisition seeking to replace the Company’s incumbent non-executive directors with six highly qualified director nominees. 

Recent results reinforce the need for change  

Since the launch of our campaign, Workspace has appointed a new executive team, including Charlie Green as CEO on 2 February 2026 and Tom Edwards-Moss as CFO on 30 April 2026. 

On 10 June 2026, this new management team presented a new strategy alongside the Company’s annual results. 

At the heart of this strategy, described as a “transformation to an earnings-focused business,” is a capital allocation policy that reinvests disposal proceeds to upgrade properties in an effort to grow rental income over time. We have serious concerns regarding the risks inherent in this strategy. 

Even under management’s own assumptions, the plan is expected to take several years to generate meaningful earnings growth. In our view, shareholders are being asked to accept considerable execution risk, uncertain returns, and an extended investment horizon, despite the existence of a more immediate and lower-risk alternative. 

Our Value Creation Strategy – greater value, lower risk 

While our thinking has evolved since the launch of our campaign, our core conviction remains unchanged: shareholder value can be realised more quickly and with substantially lower execution risk by prioritising much more significant property sales with the proceeds utilised in share buybacks over large-scale reinvestment. Importantly, this would not involve any fire sale of assets – as the second largest shareholder, that would not be in ours or any shareholders’ interest. Rather, we believe Workspace can pursue an orderly and accelerated disposal programme that maximises value while maintaining discipline. 

We have identified a disposal roadmap comprising three distinct tranches: an initial group of 21 priority non-core assets, a second phase of 19 assets, and a final opportunity-led portfolio of 16 assets. This framework provides a clear pathway to realising value while retaining flexibility to respond to market conditions. 

Alongside the core cycle of asset disposals and buybacks, two incremental levers can further close the discount to NAV. First, outsourcing property management functions to lift occupancy, enhance operational efficiency and cut costs. 

Second, a more disciplined refurbishment program would focus capital expenditure on selected assets where targeted investment can drive occupancy and rental rates in order to lease or ready these properties for sale. This approach would reduce capital intensity while improving returns on invested capital. We have engaged with several well-known and highly credible real estate firms with an interest in becoming the outsourced property manager in a number of Workspace properties. 

Together, these operational improvements complement the dispose-and-repurchase strategy that sits at the centre of our Value Creation Strategy. 

The need for new, independent board oversight  

The current Board’s track record does not justify continued stewardship of shareholder capital. The Company’s approximately 50% discount to NAV[5] stands as a stark indictment of its performance and oversight. 

The time has come for the incumbent, non-executive directors to step aside and focus on preserving shareholder value rather than preserving their positions. 

We therefore urge shareholders to vote for Saba’s six highly qualified nominees: Greg Attwood, Nick Shattock, Andrew Sim, Richard Starr, Gautam Garg and Simon Hampton. 

Collectively, these nominees bring deep expertise across real estate, capital allocation, public company governance, operational improvement, and shareholder value creation. We believe they represent the right combination of skills and experience to provide effective oversight and support management in implementing a strategy that maximises value for all shareholders. 

We encourage shareholders to review our accompanying presentation which provides a detailed assessment of the Company’s performance, the Board’s record, our Value Creation Strategy, the qualifications of the six nominees, and the urgent need for change. 

We look forward to engaging with other shareholders and discussing our proposal in the weeks ahead. 

Sincerely, 

Paul KazarianPartnerSaba Capital Management L.P.

Deployment brings Applied Intuition’s end-to-end autonomy stack to a major global automotive market, demonstrating rapid adaptation across regions, regulations and real-world driving conditions. 

SUNNYVALE, Calif., June 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Applied Intuition, Inc., a leader in physical AI, today announced the expansion of its Self-Driving System (SDS) to Japan, marking the latest step in the company’s effort to scale advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) and autonomy technologies across global markets. 

Less than a year after launching SDS for Automotive, which is already deployed in North America and Europe, Applied Intuition is bringing the platform to Japan, underscoring the speed at which the company can adapt its autonomy stack to new regions. 

The deployment extends Applied Intuition’s SDS platform to one of the world’s most complex driving environments, including dense urban corridors, multi-exit intersections, left-hand traffic patterns and highly variable road conditions. Applied Intuition has operated in Japan for years through its L4 trucking deployments, including its work with Isuzu Motors. This expansion introduces the company’s broader SDS for Automotive platform to the market, bringing advanced L2+ and L2++ driver-assistance capabilities — including intelligent parking, active safety, and point-to-point urban driving — while providing a path toward high-level L3 and L4 capabilities over time. 

“SDS was designed from the beginning to adapt quickly across regions, regulations and driving environments,” said Qasar Younis, co-founder and CEO of Applied Intuition. “Expanding SDS to Japan demonstrates the flexibility of our architecture and the strength of the infrastructure we’ve built to support rapid deployment and iteration globally.” 

Applied Intuition’s SDS platform uses an end-to-end autonomy stack for vehicles powered by data collected from the real world and synthetic data. Neural networks enable control of the vehicle with limited human intervention in a variety of environments such as urban driving, highways, parking and summon. The system operates without reliance on HD maps or lidar, instead using production-grade cameras and radar sensors paired with onboard compute to interpret and respond to the driving environment in real time. 

The platform also supports a broad range of compute architectures — including passively-cooled NVIDIA DRIVE platforms and other leading automotive silicon solutions — allowing automakers to deploy advanced driver-assistance capabilities at scale without being tied to a single hardware ecosystem. By combining a production-ready autonomy stack with a scalable software foundation, SDS helps OEMs accelerate deployment while operating within the cost, power, thermal, and packaging constraints of mass-market vehicles. 

To support the Japan deployment, Applied Intuition established local vehicle operations and data infrastructure in the region, enabling the company to collect and process driving data specific to Japanese roads, traffic behaviors and applicable regulatory requirements. This infrastructure allows SDS to adapt quickly to new operational design domains and accelerate performance improvements across geographies. 

As automakers race to deploy intelligent vehicles worldwide, Applied Intuition continues to build the software foundation that makes autonomy scalable across regions, regulations and driving environments. 

About Applied IntuitionApplied Intuition, Inc. is powering the future of physical AI. Founded in 2017 and now valued at $15 billion, the Silicon Valley company is creating the digital infrastructure needed to bring intelligence to every moving machine on the planet. Applied Intuition services the automotive, defense, trucking, construction, mining and agriculture industries in three core areas: tools and infrastructure, operating systems, and autonomy. Eighteen of the top 20 global automakers, as well as the United States military and its allies, trust the company’s solutions to deliver physical intelligence.

OSAKA, Japan, June 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Daicel Corporation’s High Performance Polymers (HPPs) SBU (formerly Polyplastics Co., Ltd.), a global leader in engineering plastics, has announced that its DURAST(R) POM fine powder has been adopted for use in an innovative stick-form lubricant produced by Japan-based Maia Co. Ltd. This groundbreaking solid lubricant, utilizing newly launched DURAST(R) POM fine powder, resolves issues such as dripping, splattering, and waste caused by over-application, dramatically transforming maintenance processes.

Maia’s unique manufacturing technology, called Sol – Mid (TM), delivers a product that is typically packaged in a stick-shaped container and can also be molded into custom shapes to meet customer needs. The performance of Sol – Mid (TM) is underpinned by the chemical properties of DURAST(R) POM. This product is formed by mixing ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMW-PE) with grease. DURAST(R) POM acts as an interlayer between the PE and the grease, and plays a crucial role in maintaining compatibility. 

With the stick format, there is no risk of leakage like with liquids, and because it is easy to carry, it offers greater convenience at maintenance sites for office equipment and industrial machinery. For the maintenance of office equipment, it can reduce the use of conventional maintenance oil by approximately 80%. 

Previously, the processing of general-purpose resins into uniform powder using conventional grinding methods was extremely difficult. Daicel overcame this challenge by developing a proprietary manufacturing process for DURAST(R) POM, which features a distinctive shape and controlled, fine and sharp particle size distribution. 

This stick format solution utilizing DURAST(R) POM is scheduled for full-scale commercialization by targeting maintenance applications for major office equipment manufacturers, in addition to industrial sectors such as industrial machinery repair, bicycle maintenance and conveyor systems.

The Maxis series is live today, starting at €829 with launch savings. 

HONG KONG, June 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — LiberNovo’s Maxis series goes on sale today, the brand’s first line built from the ground up for Big & Tall users rather than scaled up from a standard chair. It ships in three configurations, alongside two additions to the LiberNovo Omni family. 

Built for the body, not scaled up to fit 

Maxis targets the three things that fail a larger body in a standard seat: thighs left unsupported, a recline that sways under weight, and support that gives out by mid-afternoon. The 52 cm seat extends fully under the thigh. Multi-density foam holds its shape instead of bottoming out under load. A tall backrest and adjustable neck support hold the spine and neck, with the neck support sitting at the neck rather than behind the head. The frame is BIFMA-certified to 181 kg (399 lb) on a die-cast aluminum alloy base. 

Recline that holds under load 

For a heavier build, recline is where most chairs lose stability. The five-stage recline control runs from 105° to 160°, and the dynamic support holds the frame steady through every stage, so the chair stays planted whether you sit upright for focus work, lean back between tasks, or recline fully through a long session. 

Where it earns its keep 

The same build pays off across a long day. Eight hours at a desk, an evening reclined at home, a marathon gaming session: Maxis is engineered to support firmly and stay comfortable through all of it, not just the first hour. 

One lineup, every body and budget 

Maxis ships in three configurations. Manual (€829) covers the core build with five-stage recline and an aluminum alloy base. Electric (€1,079), in Graphite or Glacier, adds a powered lumbar and the spinal stretch function for fine-tuning at the press of a button. Airflow (€1,269) sits at the top, layering Active Airflow seat ventilation for users who run hot. Two Omni updates land the same day: Omni SE, the manual entry into LiberNovo’s Dynamic Ergonomics platform, and Omni Pro, the fully electric version with powered lumbar, spinal stretch, and Active Airflow. Between them, the lineup now covers most body types and most budgets. 

Launch pricing runs from today through July 31.

Tra tornei giovanili, sagre, concerti di piccole dimensioni, conferenze e iniziative di quartiere, l’Italia degli eventi vive spesso di organizzazioni snelle: volontari, budget contenuti, tempi stretti. In questo contesto, la biglietteria non è solo un dettaglio logistico ma un punto critico: code all’ingresso, contante da gestire, ricevute da ricostruire a fine serata. Sempre più realtà cercano soluzioni “leggere” per incassare prima e meglio, senza dover mettere in piedi un e-commerce o sistemi complessi. 

Una tendenza in crescita è l’uso del
link di pagamento
: si invia un collegamento via mail, chat o social e il partecipante completa il pagamento da smartphone. È il modello noto anche come pay by link, utile per prevendite, quote di iscrizione, caparre o pacchetti famiglia. Per gli organizzatori significa ridurre la pressione in cassa nel momento di punta e avere un numero più chiaro di adesioni già prima dell’apertura. 

L’effetto si vede anche sul campo: meno tempo speso a gestire resto e banconote, meno errori, più fluidità agli accessi. E a evento chiuso, una traccia digitale degli incassi aiuta a rendicontare con più rapidità, soprattutto quando l’organizzazione coinvolge più persone e più punti vendita. In un settore dove la differenza la fa la capacità di concentrarsi sul pubblico e sulla sicurezza, semplificare il pagamento può diventare un vantaggio operativo, non solo tecnologico.

FIRENZE – A partire da agosto nel tpl su ferro e su gomma entreranno in vigore adeguamenti tariffari annuali obbligatori (legati all’inflazione) cui si aggiungeranno, nel caso del trasporto su gomma, ulteriori aggiornamenti previsti dai contratti di servizio in vigore.

Per contenere, ed in alcuni casi annullare, questi aumenti la Regione Toscana interverrà con uno stanziamento di quasi 12 milioni di euro, che andrà a limitare l’impatto sui titolari degli abbonamenti, sia ferroviari che di bus, tutelando così pendolari, utenti abituali e fasce sociali più esposte.

Si tratta di una decisione che conferma la volontà della Regione di difendere il diritto alla mobilità, evitando che sui cittadini ricada interamente l’aumento dovuto sia all’adeguamento inflattivo obbligatorio Foi – indice nazionale dei prezzi al consumo per le Famiglie di operai e impiegati – adeguamento previsto dal contratto di gestione, che consente alle aziende di adeguare le tariffe ogni anno all’indice del tasso di inflazione), sia alle tensioni internazionali e alla crisi dello stretto di Hormuz, criticità globali che stanno incidendo pesantemente sui costi dell’energia e dei carburanti (benzina +37%, gasolio +30%).

La misura si inserisce in un sistema complesso, nel quale il trasporto pubblico locale toscano viene sostenuto ogni anno con circa 450 milioni di euro di risorse statali, 144 milioni di euro di risorse regionali e circa 38 milioni di euro messi a disposizione dagli enti locali.

I contratti di servizio in vigore – concepiti in periodi di maggiore stabilità economica e geopolitica – prevedono adeguamenti tariffari annuali obbligatori legati all’inflazione e, nel caso del trasporto su gomma, ulteriori aggiornamenti contrattualmente definiti.
Senza un intervento diretto della Regione, questi meccanismi avrebbero determinato aumenti generalizzati delle tariffe del 15 per cento flat (nel 2023 fu 10 per cento flat senza calmierazioni). La scelta compiuta è stata invece quella di utilizzare risorse proprie per attenuare e in alcuni casi per azzerare gli effetti degli adeguamenti e rendere più equa la distribuzione dei costi.

“Dal 2023 il prezzo del biglietto urbano in Toscana è di 1,7 euro – ha ricordato il presidente della Regione Toscana Eugenio Giani – dopo tre anni di aumento del costo della vita, di guerra e di crisi del carburante si passa a 2 euro. Non potevamo fare altro perché dobbiamo rispettare un contratto sottoscritto circa 10 anni fa che dà al concessionario Autolinee Toscane la possibilità di aumentare le tariffe in base al costo della vita e all’inflazione. Noi abbiamo cercato di opporci, ma di fronte alla possibilità di un contenzioso, che alla fine si sarebbe risolto a loro favore, abbiamo acconsentito ad un lieve aumento, che è comunque in linea con i costi dei biglietti nelle altre principali città italiane del centro-nord: a Bologna il biglietto costa già 2,30; a Milano 2,20; a Genova e Torino 2. Siamo però intervenuti, mettendo ulteriori 12 milioni del bilancio regionale, per tutelare gli abbonamenti, sia su ferro che su gomma. Ricordo che la Regione Toscana da sola l’anno scorso ha messo 144 milioni per il tpl risorse cui si sommano ogni anno 450 milioni dello Stato e risorse da Comuni e Province, che nel complesso non arrivano a 40 milioni. Noi stiamo facendo la nostra parte e siamo disponibili a concertare nuove agevolazioni e proposte ma è necessario il coinvolgimento degli altri enti coinvolti”.

Il presidente ha inoltre ricordato anche un aspetto vantaggioso per il servizio pubblico collegato ai vincoli contrattuali che legano la Toscana al gestore del servizio di tpl su gomma: “Il contratto in vigore – ha detto – ha previsto dal 2021 ad oggi un progressivo rinnovo del parco mezzi, che ha portato sulle strade già più di mille bus nuovi, con un abbattimento dell’età media del mezzi da 13 a 7 anni. Quest’anno è previsto un inserimento particolarmente consistente di nuovi mezzi, per cui entro fine anno potrebbero essere ben 1500 i mezzi nuovi in circolazione. Dunque è giusto guardare alle tariffe, ma ricordiamo anche che lo stesso contratto che ci impone gli adeguamenti all’inflazione, ci consente di avere bus più nuovi, che non si fermano, non hanno guasti e sono più sicuri e confortevoli”.

Per spiegare l’origine e il senso della manovra è intervenuto anche l’assessore regionale ai trasporti Filippo Boni: “Dobbiamo partire da due elementi fondamentali – ha detto – il primo è che l’aumento esponenziale dei costi del carburante per la comunità italiana e per la comunità europea; il secondo punto è che dobbiamo adeguarci a quanto previsto in un contratto di servizio di dieci anni fa, che è in vigore, che dà alle aziende il diritto di adeguare ogni anno le tariffe all’indice Foi. La Regione Toscana, in linea di principio totalmente contraria all’aumento, in alcuni anni ha avuto le risorse per annullare completamente l’aumento delle tariffe coprendo l’adeguamento all’indice Foi con risorse proprie, in altri anni ha calmierato l’aumento. Nel 2024 e nel 2025 l’aumento è stato annullato, ma quest’anno a fronte della nuova richiesta delle aziende abbiamo fatto quanto possibile: abbiamo messo a disposizione 12 milioni di euro, grazie ai quali verrà totalmente annullato l’effetto dell’aumento sugli abbonamenti ferroviari regionali e verrà di fatto dimezzato quello che sarebbe stato l’aumento sugli abbonamenti per il tpl su gomma: doveva essere del 15%, sarà di circa l’8%. E abbiamo messo in atto una serie di misure di carattere sociale: la gratuità per i bambini sotto gli 11 anni, l’esclusione dall’aumento per gli studenti under 26 che abitano più lontani, la possibilità di pagare l’abbonamento in 4 rate, una novità assoluta nel tpl”.

“Siamo naturalmente disponibili – ha concluso l’assessore – anche per cercare ulteriori forme di agevolazione. Abbiamo già convocato la conferenza permanente del trasporto pubblico, anche con gli enti locali, per il prossimo 21 luglio. Potremo aprirci al dialogo, al confronto e valutare insieme ai Comuni e alle Province, quali sono eventuali ulteriori azioni da fare e quali ulteriori risorse da poter reperire”.

Tpl su ferro

Per il trasporto ferroviario regionale sono stati stanziati quasi 2 milioni di euro, che andranno ad annullare il lieve aumento del costo degli abbonamenti. Dunque i titolari di abbonamenti ferroviari non vedranno aumenti, mentre l’adeguamento interesserà esclusivamente i biglietti singoli.

La corsa singola registrerà un incremento pari al tasso inflattivo cumulato, circa il 5 per cento, come previsto dai contratti di servizio in essere da anni, accordi che comprendono sia il servizio che il rinnovo del parco mezzi con 70 nuovi treni e 2000 autobus, di cui ad oggi oltre 1000 sono già rinnovati. Questa scelta tutela direttamente i pendolari e tutti coloro che utilizzano quotidianamente il treno per studio o lavoro.

Tpl su gomma

Sul trasporto pubblico su gomma, la Regione investirà circa 10 milioni di euro per ridurre sensibilmente l’impatto degli aumenti. Grazie a questo intervento, l’incremento previsto sugli abbonamenti verrà abbattuto di quasi il 50 per cento: dal 15% all’8 per cento.

Per i biglietti urbani dei capoluoghi il costo passerà da 1,70 a 2 euro, mantenendosi in linea con quanto avviene nelle principali città italiane del centro-nord (a Bologna il biglietto costa già 2,30; a Milano 2,20; a Genova e Torino 2).

Di fatto, il costo del viaggio andrà a calare in base alla frequenza: In città, se usi il trasporto pubblico: biglietto singolo, un viaggio costa 2 euro; carnet da 10 corse, un viaggio costa 1,80 euro; abbonamento mensile (stimati circa 40 viaggi), un viaggio costa 1,06 euro; abbonamento annuale (stimati circa 400 viaggi), un viaggio costa 0,90 euro.

Accanto al contenimento degli aumenti per gli abbonamenti, la delibera introduce e rafforza importanti misure di carattere sociale: viene estesa la gratuità del trasporto ai minori fino al compimento degli 11 anni, superando il precedente criterio legato all’altezza di un metro; viene inoltre annullato l’aumento degli abbonamenti extraurbani per gli studenti fino a 26 anni; viene introdotta la possibilità di rateizzare il costo degli abbonamenti in quattro rate senza interessi.

Con questo intervento – fatto adesso perché le aziende dei trasporti obbligano l’ente a dare comunicazione con circa due mesi di anticipo – la Regione Toscana conferma la scelta di ‘proteggere’ chi utilizza ogni giorno i bus, investendo sul trasporto pubblico come strumento di coesione sociale, sostenibilità ambientale e sviluppo territoriale nonostante la fase economica complessa.

Il prossimo 21 luglio si riunirà inoltre la Conferenza permanente per il trasporto pubblico locale, con l’obiettivo di verificare, insieme agli enti locali e ai soggetti coinvolti, la possibilità di reperire ulteriori risorse utili a ridurre ancora l’impatto degli aumenti residui e rafforzare le misure di sostegno a favore degli utenti del trasporto pubblico toscano.

Office of Strategic Capital conditionally commits $500 million for the construction of the Freedom Facility, a fully integrated domestic rare earth separation and metallization platform built to secure critical supply chain in the U.S.
 

BURLINGTON, Mass., June 16, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The U.S. Department of War’s Office of Strategic Capital and Phoenix Tailings today announced a strategic investment to address one of the most consequential challenges in the American industrial base: rare earth midstream processing. 

The Office of Strategic Capital is conditionally committing $500 million in long-term debt financing toward the construction of the Freedom Facility, anchoring an approximately $1 billion comprehensive financing initiative to rebuild America’s rare earth industrial base. Once operational, the facility will process diverse feedstocks to produce the light and heavy rare earth metals required by American industry, defense systems, and allied supply chains. 

The midstream rare earth supply chain is the critical link between feedstock producers such as mines and recyclers, downstream manufacturers, and end users. Today, American defense systems, advanced manufacturing, energy infrastructure, and consumer technology depend heavily on critical materials refined overseas using processes that carry significant environmental, societal, and geopolitical risks. Establishing a resilient supply chain is a national security imperative for the United States and its allies. 

“Supporting domestic processing for critical minerals and rare earths is a key focus for OSC, and the rare earth midstream processing capabilities that Phoenix Tailings represents are key shortage areas that need to be rapidly addressed. We are pleased to support Phoenix Tailings in building the company’s Freedom Facility, which will represent an important step in strengthening the full mine-to-magnet supply chain in the United States,” said David A. Lorch, Director of the Office of Strategic Capital and Senior Advisor to Deputy Secretary of War Steve Feinberg. 

As the most constrained segment of the rare earth value chain, midstream processing is integral to the development of a resilient domestic rare earth industry. The Freedom Facility is designed to address supply chain constraints by creating a large-scale separation and metallization capacity capable of serving mines, recyclers, manufacturers, and government entities. 

“By creating a midstream facility like this, we are empowering virtually every part of the market and rebuilding the rare earth sector as a truly collaborative industry,” said Anthony Balladon, Co-Founder and Chief Commercial Officer of Phoenix Tailings. “We will ensure end customers get access to the rare earth metals they urgently need, while helping mines and recyclers get up and running by purchasing their output, which would otherwise have to move through other nations. The Freedom Facility is designed to serve as the backbone of a resilient Western rare earth supply chain.” 

The Freedom Facility will produce both light and heavy rare earth metals from a diverse range of feedstocks, including concentrates, recycled materials, and secondary sources. This flexibility ensures a fully integrated, agile, and resilient supply chain that can rapidly adapt to shifting national security and commercial demands. The facility is designed to utilize domestically controlled technology and intellectual property, mitigating reliance on foreign entities of concern. Initial operations are targeted for 2028. 

Phoenix Tailings’ processing platform is built on three core technology pillars: advanced chemistry, industrial hardware, and digital infrastructure. Unlike traditional processes, which carry significant public health risks, worker safety hazards, and high energy costs, Phoenix Tailings leverages cutting edge technology to create fully clean, safe, and economically competitive operations. 

“We founded Phoenix Tailings in our backyard because we believed there was a better way to produce rare earths and critical metals,” said Dr. Tomas Villalón Jr., Co-Founder and CTO of Phoenix Tailings. “This strategic investment from the Office of Strategic Capital will allow us to deploy the infrastructure America has lacked for decades while proving that advanced technology can deliver a safer, cleaner, and more competitive rare earth industry.” 

“Every team member at Phoenix Tailings understands the responsibility entrusted to us. We know what is at stake, and we know that failure is not an option,” said Nicholas Myers, Co-Founder and CEO of Phoenix Tailings. “This mission is bigger than any one company. It is about strengthening American industry, securing critical supply chains, and ensuring our nation has the resources it needs to thrive. To the American people: you have our word that we will work tirelessly to achieve that mission, and we will not let you down.” 

The conditional loan commitment between OSC and Phoenix Tailings specifies additional customary steps the company must take to proceed toward financial close on the loan, to include fulfilling financial, legal, technical, and other due diligence requirements.

Capability will deliver secure, mobile connectivity on NATO’s eastern flank 

MONTREAL, June 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Marconi Technologies and Polish defense integrator Enamor International have been selected to deliver Orion X650 high-capacity MANET radios to the Polish military, providing a survivable, mobile backhaul for 5G-enabled communications. Multi-year deliveries will begin later this year. 

The contract directly supports Poland’s defense investment priorities under the EU’s Security Action for Europe (SAFE) instrument, accelerating the country’s military modernization along NATO’s eastern flank. 

The Orion X650 is a sixth-generation software-defined tactical radio built for high-throughput communications in contested environments. It’s designed for missions demanding frequency agility and survivability, whether on the move or at the quick halt. With four RF ports, it can be configured as either two independent radio channels – replacing two networked radios – or a single channel supporting 4×4 MIMO to maximize performance and resilience. Its ruggedized design ensures reliable operation across air, land and sea. 

For the Polish defense forces, the X650 will serve as the data transport backbone connecting 5G-enabled C2 nodes, extending mobile broadband capability to forward and dispersed units while maintaining resilience against electronic warfare threats. 

“Poland’s commitment to building sovereign, resilient defense capabilities matches our outlook as a Canadian-headquartered company,” said Alain Cohen, CEO of Marconi Technologies. “Selecting our Polish partners Enamor International to deliver the Orion X650 on NATO’s eastern flank is not simply a contract win for both companies; it is a statement that like-minded allies, investing seriously in their own defense, can find real partners across industrial bases.” 

The selection follows extensive in-country trials, during which Orion radios operating on drones, vehicles, and fixed positions validated interoperability, throughput, and operational flexibility across dispersed locations throughout Poland. 

The partnership between Marconi and Enamor International positions both companies to support Poland’s broader tactical communications modernization as SAFE-funded programs advance through 2030.

PISA – Domani (17 giugno), nel giorno del patrono della città, torna il Palio di San Ranieri, la sfida in Arno tra le quattro imbarcazioni che rappresentano i quartieri storici della città: San Francesco (barca gialla), San Martino (barca rossa) Santa Maria (barca celeste) e Sant’Antonio (barca verde).

La competizione prenderà il via alle 19 con le imbarcazioni che gareggeranno per 1500 metri controcorrente dal ponte della Cittadella, alla sede dei Canottieri Arno, fino all’arrivo allo Scalo dei Renaioli. La gara sarà preceduta alle 18 dal corteo storico fluviale con le 4 imbarcazioni dei quartieri storici e la presenza di figuranti che accompagnano la pala del Santo.

Tra le novità di questa edizione, il corteo vedrà una partecipazione più numerosa di figuranti in costume storico, che sfileranno sull’Arno a bordo di due galeoni anziché uno, ampliando così la rappresentazione scenografica della manifestazione.

Il Palio di San Ranieri è un evento di rievocazione storica che fa parte delle Tradizioni della storia e dell’identità di Pisa. L’amministrazione comunale organizza il 17 giugno, in occasione della Festa del Santo Patrono Ranieri, un palio remiero che si svolge sulle acque del fiume Arno tra quattro imbarcazioni, che si rifanno alle antiche Galere Stefaniane, fregate dell’Ordine dei Cavalieri di Santo Stefano. La rievocazione storica trae le proprie origini dal Palio in onore del Patrono ideato e promosso nel 1935 dalla locale sezione Enal.

L’evento di rievocazione si colloca cronologicamente nel XVI secolo, nel periodo della battaglia di Lepanto del 7 ottobre 1571. La gara è disputata in Arno su un percorso di 1500 metri, in controcorrente, dalle imbarcazioni abbinate ai quattro quartieri storici della città, come definiti negli anni Trenta del 19: San Francesco con il colore giallo, San Martino con il rosso, Santa Maria con il celeste e Sant’Antonio con il verde.

Il programma

Alle 18 è prevista la partenza, dal Ponte della Cittadella, del corteo fluviale che giungerà nei pressi dello Scalo Renaioli. Alle 18.30 il sorteggio delle corsie d’acqua e alle 19 la partenza della competizione. Alle 19,30, infine, presso lo Scalo dei Renaioli, la cerimonia di consegna del Palio.

Nell’ambito delle iniziative collegate al Palio, alle 18,15 allo Scalo dei Renaioli si terrà la premiazione delle scuole cittadine che hanno partecipato al progetto educativo promosso dal Comune di Pisa insieme alle associazioni canottiere coinvolte nella manifestazione. Il percorso ha consentito agli studenti di conoscere le principali tradizioni storiche della città e di avvicinarsi alla pratica del canottaggio attraverso attività teoriche e dimostrative.

Gli equipaggi

Ogni ‘fregata’ è composta da vogatori, timoniere e montatore. Quest’ultimo, al traguardo, ha il compito di arrampicarsi su uno dei 4 canapi che raggiungono la sommità di un pennone alto 10 metri e afferrare il palio azzurro, simbolo della vittoria. Due (simbolici) paperi, invece, rappresentano il poco ambito riconoscimento per gli ultimi classificati. Questa particolare modalità di assegnazione della vittoria si ispira all’impresa di Lepanto quando le truppe cristiane, una volta abbordata l’ammiraglia turca, si impadronirono della fiamma da combattimento posta sul pennone dell’imbarcazione saracena.

Barca Celeste: Davide Barbieri, Mirko Barbieri, Edoardo Bellani, Alessandro Bernardini, Andrea Grassini, Edoardo Margheri, Edoardo Pagni, Luca Romani. Timoniere: Gabriele Ciulli. Montatore: Joel Devine.
Barca Rossa: Daniel Baglini, Leonardo Pioli, Andrea Yraso, Francesco Iorio, Edoardo Ghelardi, Alessio Antoni, Marci Vigna, Fabio Perlata. Timoniere: Mariachiara Bellani. Montatore: Iacopo Casella.
Barca Verde: Simone Barandoni, Paolo Brillante, Francesco Carrara, Francesco Gadducci, Matteo Gadducci, Emanuele Giarri, Andrea Martelli, Daniele Sbrana. Timoniere: Clara Massaria. Montatore: Leonardo Bellinvia.
Barca Gialla: Giorgio Boccini, Andrea Florio, Alessandro Galatolo, Simone Giorgi, Patryk Lysiak, Davide Merlino, Michele Pratesi, Vito Saggese. Timoniere: Riccardo Pellegrini.

Il progetto con le scuole

Nell’ambito delle iniziative dedicate alle tradizioni storiche remiere della città, quest’anno il Comune di Pisa ha promosso, insieme alle quattro associazioni remiere che partecipano al Palio, un progetto educativo finalizzato a far conoscere agli studenti le tradizioni della storia e dell’identità di Pisa e ad avvicinarli alla pratica del canottaggio. Il progetto ha coinvolto alcune classi delle scuole secondarie di primo grado del territorio, abbinate simbolicamente ai quattro quartieri storici della città: la Canottieri Arno (barca verde) con la scuola Toniolo, la Canottieri San Francesco (barca gialla) con la scuola Galilei, l’Asc Billi (barca rossa) con la scuola Gamerra”e la Canottieri Antoni (barca celeste) con le scuole Mazzini e Toniolo – sede succursale. La conclusione del percorso sarà celebrata mercoledì 17 giugno alle 18.15 allo Scalo dei Renaioli con una premiazione dedicata alle scuole partecipanti e la consegna di una pubblicazione a tema.
