Ajay Aggarwal, President of LIBERTY Steel Group Europe and Chairman of the Board of Directors of LIBERTY Galati, said: “We are launching a new project for the first true digital native generation. 天博体育官方网站ir lives are already becoming dominated by technology, social networks and streaming services, so we wanted to offer our employees鈥� children an opportunity to further their interest in these new technologies and provide a suitable framework for developing their skills in the fields of the future, such as robotics.
