Vincenzo Crupi, together with the Team Leaders of the Messina Energy Boat (MEB) project, Giuseppe Brando and Giovanni Briguglio, proudly represented the team at the conference 'New horizons for naval propulsion systems: from hybrid to electric for sustainable mobility'.

Organised by the Italian Naval Technology Association (ATENA) at the Circolo Ufficiali M.M. in Augusta, the event hosted distinguished speakers:
