Cities are no longer static systems. They evolve continuously, shaped by data, technology and informed decision making. Artificial Intelligence is transforming the way urban renovation is approached. By leveraging advanced language models, large volumes of information can be analysed efficiently and converted into structured, actionable insights. This supports more informed planning, stronger coordination and renovation strategies designed to reduce disruption while enhancing the long‑term value of urban environments. In this video, our Jairis and Gianmarco share insights on how, through initiatives such as BUILDCHAIN-PROJECT, we apply these technologies in practice, strengthening data‑driven renovation planning and supporting the development of cities that are more resilient, adaptive and future‑ready. #GrowWithRINA

The initiative supports Mercy Ships’ mission to deliver medical care and surgical support in regions with limited access to healthcare, through hospital ships operated by volunteer medical professionals. A big kudos to our colleagues at Foreship Ltd. who joined the race and actively support this important humanitarian effort: Michelle Cottet, Viktor Gingsjö, Linus Olin and Jan-Erik Räsänen. #GrowWithRINA
We hosted professors from Eduardo Mondlane University - Mozambique, at our Genoa offices for an intensive R&D training programme, delivered as part of a three‑year Technical Assistance project developed with Università degli Studi di Genova. The training focused on transferring operational capabilities across the full lifecycle of research and innovation projects, with a strong emphasis on real‑world application rather than theory. The sessions addressed concrete topics, including: - understanding EU and international funding programmes and how to identify relevant opportunities; - translating strategic priorities into solid project concepts and proposals; - structuring R&D proposals around excellence, impact and implementation; - managing projects once funded, including planning, reporting and change management. The initiative represents a concrete step in strengthening institutional research capacity, enabling universities to develop sustainable grant ecosystems, international collaboration and long‑term innovation strategies. This is how we contribute to building research capability and turning knowledge into applied, verifiable skills for people. #GrowWithRINA

Sectors operating in increasingly complex ecosystems need monitoring solutions that provide reliable, scalable and independently verified insights. Traditional approaches based on self‑reporting or periodic inspections are no longer sufficient when assessing environmental and infrastructure performance across large areas. Through a new technical partnership, we are working with Space4Good to integrate satellite‑based monitoring capabilities with our technical expertise to enhance independent verification activities. Initial areas of collaboration include infrastructure monitoring, environmental verification such as deforestation and land‑use change assessment, and validation services for satellite‑derived datasets in areas including biofuels and carbon credits. This partnership enhances our engagement with stakeholders in Brazil and opens new opportunities across Europe, Latin America and Southeast Asia, reinforcing our shared commitment to reliable, data‑driven and scalable solutions for a more transparent and sustainable future. #GrowWithRINA
We’re proud to celebrate a milestone in materials testing at our CSM laboratories: an IN718 specimen with a modified heat treatment has reached 200,000 hours of creep testing, setting a company record. A creep test measures how a material deforms under constant stress at high temperature over time - critical for ensuring reliability in extreme operating conditions. Our test began in 2002 under the Thermie European Project, aimed at improving the creep behaviour of alloys for components in Advanced Ultrasupercritical power plants. The record-breaking specimen, together with others previously tested, confirms that an increase of 50°C in service temperature is possible using the modified heat treatment developed during the project. When the Thermie Project ended, we chose not to stop the test - and we celebrate the results of that decision. A special thanks to our Mechanical and Creep Laboratory team in Castel Romano (Italy) who contributed to this remarkable achievement.
We recently certified Petrobras’ Duque de Caxias Refinery (REDUC) under the ISCC CORSIA standard for the coprocessing of refined vegetable oils to produce Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF). A major milestone for sustainable aviation and for Brazil’s energy transition. Recognised by the International Civil Aviation Organization, this certification confirms full compliance with international sustainability requirements, including feedstock traceability, robust mass balance control, and verified greenhouse gas emissions calculations. With this achievement, REDUC is officially recognised as a certified coprocessing plant, enabling Petrobras to produce SAF eligible for the global aviation market and positioning the company as the first CORSIA-certified SAF producer in Latin America. Beyond the certification itself, this project demonstrates how existing refining assets can be adapted to deliver low-carbon fuels, accelerating the decarbonisation of international aviation.
