UNINDUSTRIA, MARPOSS AND JOHNS HOPKINS JOINTLY PROMOTE INTERNATIONAL EDUCATION IN THE NAME OF MARIO POSSATI

For several years Unindustria and Marposs have been jointly promoting international education in the name of Mario Possati, thus contributing to integration and enhancement of young talents who now hold positions of responsibility in key roles of international relations, world economy and world finance.

The "Mario Possati" Memorial Fellowship, which Unindustria Bologna and Marposs S.p.A. together endow with an East European qualified student of the Bologna Center of the Johns Hopkins University, has been assigned this year to Mario Brataj, 24 years old, from Albania. Mario Brataj has been living in Italy since 1996 and graduated in  International and Diplomatic Relations at the University of Bologna. He also studied, through Erasmus program, at the University of Trier in Germany and at the UCLA University in the United States.

The ceremony was attended by: Maurizio Marchesini and Cesare Bernini (president and director general of Unindustria Bologna respectively), Kenneth H. Keller (director of the Bologna Center of the Johns Hopkins University), Stefano Possati (president of Marposs S.p.A.) together with his brothers Edoardo (vice president) and Alberto (member of the board).
