The Blue Way

Democratic energy and the water cycle

Water and energy are twin forces: they enter the life of territories, touch essential services, shape supply chains and redraw balances that move from the local scale to geopolitics.

The Blue Way Forum 2026 brings together territorial experiences, public visions and SMEs along two complementary paths. Not a showcase, but a space for listening and working together, where concrete cases, ideas and tools help read the present and open up new perspectives.

Sessions

Two trajectories, one shared level of conversation

A twin structure, with voices able to connect public administrations, territories, research and business. The result is a setting for dialogue that feels closer to a shared laboratory than to a simple sequence of speeches.

A host able to connect scenarios, resources and change

Through his programmes, he has often explored some of the major issues of our time: power, economic transformations, strategic resources, international scenarios and the impact of collective choices on the real life of territories. His presence is fully aligned with a forum that brings together water, energy, public visions and business perspectives.
