22-05-2009

At Tankoa Shipyard, a round-table conference was held in the presence of Fabio Petrone from "Nautica - Super Yacht" magazine as moderator, and Giorgetto Giugiaro, Tankoa S65/12 interior designer, Francesco Paszkowski and Prof. Ruggiero, respectively Tankoa S65/12 exterior designer and project engineer, as panellists on the topic: "Tankoa S65-12: an environmentally aware commercial and technological challenge to the mega-yacht world".

The lively and thought-provoking debate has outlined a potential future scenario within which the marine industry could represent a driving element for several other trading sectors, still quite reluctant towards the adoption of bio-architectural measures for safeguarding the environment ,which are at the same time just as interesting from a technological view point.
