Framatome has launched a new branch in Italy, with offices based in Milan and Turin. The Italian team will provide support for the existing nuclear fleet and contribute to advancing nuclear energy development across Europe.

"The creation of this branch marks a new step in our long-standing cooperation with Italy," said Bernard Fontana, CEO of Framatome. "Framatome has been hiring talented Italian engineers in France for over 40 years. This branch offers engineers the possibility of working in Italy, while contributing to the development of low carbon energy."

The establishment of the Italian branch follows a cooperation agreement signed in July between Framatome, Edison, and Politecnico di Milano. This agreement focuses on scientific and technological research and training in nuclear energy.

"To support current and future projects, Framatome is hiring 2,500 people a year around the world," noted Elisabeth Terrail, Senior Executive Vice President Human Resources at Framatome. "Prestigious Italian schools such as Politecnico di Milano, Politecnico di Torino, and CIRTEN universities offer excellent courses in nuclear engineering, for both training and research, and their graduates constitute an important talent pipeline to develop long-term skills for the nuclear industry."
