Hopefully all the growth won't come from a few players like the combustion engine automotive industry.
Just putting a battery on a car won't help the environment, we need to rethink mobility as a circular economy.
We need to use existing facilities, we need to fight planned obsolescence with standard components and modular design to foster a distributed manufacturing ecosystem.
More players, more competition, more innovation, lower prices, less pollution.

Beside all the good of the weather, food, beaches, history, art, women, etc. we all know Italy is a living dead. Europe is a living dead and everything.99% of Successful Italian startups get seeded here and then relocate to uk or us to get series A and better taxes and legal system. But engineering workforce is cheap and very talented.
But there's something that really kills it. It's us Italians.
We just love to complain. Yes It's a shit, they are stealing our money and tying our hands, but it's sufficient to ready these comments to understand that the problem is us.
Winners find solutions.
Losers find excuses.
I'm proud of being Italian. We are people of love, not people of freedom. I have almost married an american girl and lived and worked there on and off for two years. We have to fight for our country and for our Europe.
Besides that, everything we know will be disrupted and what will be left is just our memories.
I work at an accelerator (registered incubator) I'll be happy to chat with you who want to know more about here.
