Le Olimpiadi invernali Milano-Cortina 2026 produrranno effetti economici destinati a estendersi fino al 2050, con un impatto complessivo stimato in 6,1 miliardi di euro. Secondo l'analisi del Centro studi Unimpresa, il Veneto intercetterà 2,1 miliardi, pari al 34% del totale, con un'incidenza dell'1,17% sul PIL regionale, superiore a quella lombarda. Il risultato riflette il ruolo strategico di Cortina, gli investimenti sulla viabilità dolomitica e la funzione di Verona come hub di supporto. La legacy di medio periodo (2028-2030) vale 900 milioni, mentre quella di lungo periodo (2031-2050) altri 700 milioni, legati a infrastrutture, mobilità e attrattività territoriale. La Lombardia concentra 3,2 miliardi (52% del totale), pari allo 0,72% del PIL regionale, mentre il Trentino-Alto Adige registra l'impatto relativo più elevato: 800 milioni, pari all'1,60% del PIL. Nel complesso, le tre regioni coinvolte assorbono un impatto pari allo 0,90% del loro PIL combinato. Parliamo con Alberto Stefani, presidente della Regione Veneto.Industria 2025 in stallo, la ripresa estiva salva i ricaviL'industria italiana chiude il 2025 in equilibrio fragile: ricavi a 1122 miliardi, +0,2% a valori correnti grazie allo sprint del secondo semestre, mentre a valori costanti prosegue il calo, seppur contenuto. La crescita si concentra tra luglio e novembre (+1,8%) dopo un primo semestre negativo (-1,3%), segnato dalle incertezze sui dazi USA. L'auto (-8,3%) resta il settore peggiore; in difficoltà anche metallurgia, chimica, moda e largo consumo. A sostenere le medie sono alimentari, farmaceutica e meccanica, quest'ultima spinta da Transizione 5.0. Rispetto al pre-Covid il fatturato è più alto del 23%, ma trainato dall'inflazione: in sei anni alimentari e farmaceutica crescono del 40%, l'auto resta in rosso e la moda si ferma al +3,9%. Le prospettive per il 2026 appaiono migliori grazie al recupero della fiducia e agli investimenti interni in macchinari, attesi in rafforzamento con il ritorno dell'iperammortamento. Resta però la pressione competitiva cinese: import UE +8,7%, Italia +20,7% con quota al 12,6%, la più alta tra i grandi Paesi europei, anche se senza erosione visibile delle quote italiane nei partner UE. Il commento è di Alessandra Lanza, Senior Partner di Prometeia.È nato "Merzoni", il nuovo tandem per l'EuropaL'asse Roma-Berlino si prepara a emergere come nuovo motore politico europeo in vista del Consiglio europeo sulla competitività, preceduto da un vertice informale promosso da Giorgia Meloni e Friedrich Merz. L'intesa tra i due governi, definita pragmatica e operativa, si estende da migrazione e materie prime a difesa e politica industriale, come confermato dal piano d'azione firmato a Villa Pamphili. In ambienti diplomatici si parla di un riequilibrio degli assetti europei che ridimensiona il ruolo francese, mentre Macron tenta di restare centrale proponendo nuovo debito comune per difesa e tecnologia. Sullo sfondo restano le divergenze strategiche su autonomia europea, rapporti con Washington e industria militare, con Berlino attratta dal progetto Gcap guidato anche dall'Italia. Interviene Adriana Cerretelli, Il Sole 24 Ore.Legacy Olimpiadi, permetterà alla montagna italiana di fare "il salto in Champions league"?Le Olimpiadi rappresentano per Cortina e il Cadore una scommessa di lungo periodo sul turismo e sulle infrastrutture. Oltre 350 milioni sono stati investiti per ammodernare la viabilità verso la valle, con interventi storici sulla statale Alemagna e varianti strategiche attese da decenni. Nonostante i ritardi nei cantieri, amministratori locali e operatori turistici vedono nei Giochi un'occasione irripetibile per rilanciare l'economia montana, fermare lo spopolamento e garantire servizi moderni. Cortina punta a rinnovare la propria immagine dopo decenni di immobilismo, tra nuovi hotel e infrastrutture di accoglienza, con l'obiettivo di assicurare un'eredità capace di sostenere il turismo per i prossimi trent'anni. Ci raggiunge nei nostri studi Andrea Baccuini, Super G - Italian Mountain Club.

Enjoyed this episode or the podcast in general? Send me a text message:The sky doesn't forgive mistakes, and neither does history. We take you inside the F-35 Lightning II's turbulent journey—from an “impossible” 1990s idea to the networked backbone of Western air power—and ask the uncomfortable question: is this the end state of air combat, or a smart bridge to a sixth‑generation future?We start with the Joint Strike Fighter bet: one stealth airframe to replace many, tailored for the Air Force, Navy, and Marines. You'll hear how Boeing's X‑32 faced off against Lockheed Martin's X‑35, why the lift‑fan changed everything for short takeoff and vertical landing, and how concurrency turned development into a public brawl over cost and delays. Then we dig into the tech that actually changed the fight: sensor fusion that turns radar, infrared, and EW into one trusted picture; a pilot helmet that makes the cockpit disappear; and connectivity that lets an F‑35 silently cue an F‑15EX to take the shot. Red Flag outcomes, early combat by Israel, and coalition patrols across Europe and the Pacific reveal how the Lightning doesn't just fly missions—it conducts them.We don't dodge the tradeoffs. Maintenance is heavy, range is finite, and software must sprint to outpace evolving air defenses. But Block 4 upgrades and Tech Refresh 3 bring supercomputer-class processing, new weapons, smarter EW, and the groundwork for AI-assisted tactics. Most importantly, we map where this is going: loyal wingmen, NGAD, GCAP, and a web of allied F‑35s acting as a single, adaptable sensor-shooter network. If the F‑35 is the quarterback, tomorrow's unmanned partners are the fast receivers—and together they redefine air superiority.Stick around for a closing tease of the F‑22 Raptor, the apex hunter that set the fifth‑gen benchmark.

The United Kingdom's procurement of the Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II, encompassing both the F-35B and F-35A variants, reflects a complex interplay of strategic, operational, political, and industrial considerations spanning decades. The 1998 decision to select the F-35B, driven by industrial pressures and inter-service rivalries, laid the foundation for the UK's Carrier Enabled Power Projection (CEPP) capability via the Royal Navy's Queen Elizabeth-class aircraft carriers. The recent announcement to procure 12 F-35A jets, as part of the planned 138 F-35s, introduces a tactical nuclear role for the Royal Air Force (RAF) within NATO's nuclear-sharing framework. This paper examines the 1998 F-35B selection, the rationale for excluding the F-35A and F-35C, the motivations for the 2025 F-35A acquisition, and the multifaceted challenges, including impacts on the Global Combat Air Programme (GCAP), infrastructure, training, sovereignty, and CEPP. It argues that while the F-35A's assignment to 207 Squadron (OCU) and short-term cost savings address immediate needs, the legacy of 1998 decisions, combined with current policy shifts, risks undermining GCAP, increasing long-term costs, and enables Lockheed Martin to exploit tensions with GCAP partners Italy and Japan, jeopardising the our strategic autonomy and future air combat capabilities. The 1998 Decision to Select the F-35B and Inter-Service Pressures The UK's commitment to the F-35B originated in the late 1990s, formalised in the 1998 Strategic Defence Review (SDR), which prioritised restoring a credible carrier strike capability lost with the retirement of the Invincible-class carriers and Sea Harrier FA2 by 2006. As a Tier 1 partner in the US-led Joint Strike Fighter (JSF) programme, the UK evaluated three F-35 variants: the F-35A (conventional take-off and landing), F-35B (Short Take-Off and Vertical Landing, STOVL), and F-35C (carrier-based, catapult-assisted take-off but arrested recovery, CATOBAR). The Royal Navy initially favoured the F-35C, which offered greater range (1,200 nautical miles versus 900 for the F-35B), higher payload, and compatibility with CATOBAR systems, aligning with ambitions for a more capable Queen Elizabeth-class carrier design. However, political and industrial pressures tipped the scales toward the F-35B. Rolls-Royce exerted significant influence, advocating for the F-35B due to its role in developing the LiftSystem for STOVL operations, securing substantial workshare and economic benefits for British industry. Other UK firms, including BAE Systems, supported the F-35B, as it ensured integration with the Queen Elizabeth-class carriers' STOVL configuration, avoiding costly CATOBAR retrofits estimated at £2 billion per carrier. The Labour government, under Tony Blair, prioritised industrial jobs and domestic manufacturing, aligning with the SDR's emphasis on economic dividends from defence spending. The F-35B's selection promised thousands of jobs in Rolls-Royce's Bristol facilities and BAE's supply chain, outweighing the Royal Navy's operational arguments for the F-35C. Inter-service rivalries further shaped the decision. The RAF, keen to consolidate its dominance in fixed-wing aviation, supported the F-35B's joint RAF-RN operation, arguing it could serve both carrier and land-based roles, simplifying logistics and training. This contrasted with the F-35C, which would have entrenched the Royal Navy-centric carrier operations. To fund the F-35B programme and the carriers' development, the MoD faced intense inter-service pressures, leading to the controversial early retirement of the Harrier fleet. The RAF lobbied to retire the Royal Navy's FA2 (Sea Harrier) by 2006, citing its limited air-to-air capabilities compared to the F-35B's multi-role potential. Subsequently, the 2010 SDSR accelerated the retirement of the RAF's Harrier GR9 fleet, completed by 2011, despite its proven effectiveness in Afghanistan and Libya. RAF leaders argued that resou...

Un aereo da combattimento, spesso definito "caccia", rappresenta una categoria specifica di aeromobile militare progettato primariamente per intercettare e distruggere in volo velivoli nemici. Nato durante la Prima Guerra Mondiale, il caccia ha raggiunto una centralità strategica soprattutto nel secondo conflitto mondiale, dove il controllo dello spazio aereo si è rivelato un fattore decisivo. Con il progresso tecnologico, si è trasformato in una macchina bellica versatile e multiruolo, capace non solo di ingaggiare bersagli aerei ma anche di svolgere compiti di ricognizione e attacco al suolo. In questa puntata ripercorriamo l'evoluzione tecnologica dei caccia militari attraverso le diverse "generazioni", dai primi jet subsonici fino ai moderni velivoli stealth dotati di intelligenza artificiale e capacità di controllo di veicoli autonomi.Nella sezione delle notizie parliamo della prima videochiamata protetta con crittografia quantistica, del sostegno di YouTube al No Fakes Act e infine di Wordpress che ha lanciato un nuovo strumento di IA per la creazione di siti web.--Indice--00:00 - Introduzione00:57 - La prima videochiamata con crittografia quantistica (HDBlog.it, Matteo Gallo)02:07 - YouTube sostiene il No Fakes Act (TheVerge.com, Davide Fasoli)03:13 - Wordpress.com ora crea i siti con l'IA (TheVerge.com, Luca Martinelli)05:06 - L'evoluzione tecnologica dei caccia militari (Matteo Gallo)17:36 - Conclusione--Testo--Leggi la trascrizione: https://www.dentrolatecnologia.it/S7E15#testo--Contatti--• www.dentrolatecnologia.it• Instagram (@dentrolatecnologia)• Telegram (@dentrolatecnologia)• YouTube (@dentrolatecnologia)• redazione@dentrolatecnologia.it--Brani--• Ecstasy by Rabbit Theft• Redemption by Max Brhon

In Chad, representatives of opposition political parties are holding talks to decide before the end of the week whether to participate in the May 6 presidential election. Members of the umbrella group called GCAP – which represents at least 12 political parties -- are expressing concern about the credibility of the coming poll. Nasour Koursami, leader of the opposition Patriots party and a prominent member of the GCAP, says both Prime Minister Success Masra and military junta leader Mahamat Deby Itno should resign from their positions before contesting as candidates. This, he says, will ensure an equal playing field ahead of the vote. Koursami tells VOA's Peter Clottey, there are genuine concerns that the outcome of the elections is already predetermined.
Dirk Anthony is one of the most famous, or for some, infamous, radio bosses there's ever been. He pretty much ran the show at GWR and then Gcap, after the merger with Capital. When you weald so much power for so long it's difficult for some to see beyond the 'big, scary boss' tag, and forget there's s real person with their own story, dealing with their own pressures. So, not having had too many dealings Dirk in the past, Foxy was a bit nervous about grilling "the Guvnor"... but it's probably fair to say Dirk was more nervous! We started right at the beginning, taking in his slightly fortuitous entry into the industry after initially taking on a trade. He lifts the lid on the GWR / Capital merger, and muses on a job he could / should have taken on. And he addresses the "bloody Aussies" feeling some people had, with great humility and understanding. Oh, he also tells us his real name - listen right to the end for that. And whatever you thought you knew about Dirk, prepare to find out the real story. Dirk is now a partner of the consultancy company Blank White Page (https://blankwhitepage.co.uk/) and has made the incredibly kind offer to help any Crunch & Roll listener who's struggling with life after radio to understand who their skills and experience can be invaluable in the outside world.

In this episode we talk about more PSM related subjects with Brian. Known as the "PSM Evangelist" and the "Jon Taffer of Ammonia PSM," He has taught over 1,000 people how to implement PSM/RMP in their Ammonia processes. He was a GCAP instructor and now manages compliance with RC&E out of the DFW area.
Brian is the Risk and Safety Manager at RC&E. If you know Brian you know that he's pretty much the PSM Guru. I've had the pleasure of being in one of his PSM classes and I can honestly say it was one of the most engaging classes Ive ever taken. He was a GCAP instructor and helped them with the development of the PSM material along with doing the same thing with RETA. You can look forward to that soon! This was a great podcast and one we've been trying to make for months. Enjoy.

From a place behind a newsagent's counter armed just with a single O’ level – emerging as a leading influence in getting the business of brand-based commercial radio into shape as Group Commercial Director at Chrysalis, then COO at Global Radio. In this hour of ‘Radio Moments – Conversations’, Don Thomson tells of his days at the mighty Kelloggs, before alighting on a career in radio at a colourful Piccadilly in Manchester. He moved to LWT, before establishing a national radio airtime sales agency representing the UK’s newest stations – and then returning to Piccadilly as sales director. As Chrysalis won the first of its major radio licences, Don was appointed as sales director, helping to establish Heart in the West Midlands where he designed refreshing and more accountable customer-focused ad policies as the medium became more competitive for both clients and audiences. His role broadened as Chrysalis won the London licence and his clear vision and operational focus helped to position the brand approach to radio we recognise today. On the acquisition of Chrysalis by the new Global Radio in 2007, Don became Chief Operating Officer, helping to integrate the GCap stations as Global rose to its dominant position. Since leaving the Company, he has been involved in a variety of projects, including a period as Chief Exec of Celador Radio. He reflects on the lessons he learned from Kelloggs; the tricks of client relationships; and the programmers and presenters who have helped or hindered commercial efforts. In his own words – this is the Don Thomson story.

From football reporter - to becoming one of the leading figures in a generation of commercial radio, this is the story of Steve Orchard. In this hour of ‘Radio Moments Conversations’, Steve tells of his schooling and education; and a first career in social work, honing skills he was take with him throughout his life. An interest in hospital radio led to opportunities at Wiltshire Radio which flourished as the station evolved into the new GWR, where he hosted the breakfast show. As GWR grew, so did Steve’s role and he relates experiences of rolling out the famous GWR format to the company’s acquisitions. He tells too of his involvement in LBC and Classic FM – and of the pain involved in the merger to create GCap. And – from more recent days - his proud involvement in Quidem and Prison Radio. Steve shares his frustrations about regulation and his views on research vs instinct, talent management, the importance of station mood - and today’s radio environment.
