Chieti, Italy – June 24, 2019. We are honoured for welcoming the representatives of the Chinese Domestic Agency (CNDA) led by the General Director Luo Delong, accompanied by Ma Zongwen, delegate of the Chinese Embassy in Italy and by Richard Cobben, Director of the ITER Delivery Department of Fusion For Energy.
Luciano Galli, Business Development Manager and Coordinator for the Internationalization of the Tosto Group participated at the event as well.
The meeting took place with an initial presentation session in which the activities of Fusion For Energy, of the Tosto Group and of Walter Tosto were illustrated with regard to the ITER project. The visit continued in Walter Tosto’s workshops in order to view the fabrication progress of the components for the ITER experimental reactor.
The CNDA, operating under the supervision of the Chinese Ministry of Science and Technology (MOST), is committed to the ITER project and it is very active in the development of other important nuclear fusion programs. Today’s visit was aimed at finding first class partners for the China Fusion Engineering Test Reactor project (CFETR), the new ambitious Chinese DEMO program.
Chinese guests were very satisfied with the visit and expressed their willingness to reciprocate the hospitality, inviting the company staff in China.
