Centrica protagonist at EXPO 2020 Dubai

Last 10th October held the EXPO 2020 Dubai, after its postponement due to the pandemic. The theme of the event was Connecting Minds, Creating the Future which focused on Opportunity, Mobility and Sustainability. Italy was one of the attendants together with 200 countries in a dedicated pavilion.
