At the 78th Biennale die Venezia with the Repowere electrically powered boat.
The 78th International Film Festival of the Biennale di Venezia was held from 1 to 11 September 2021 on Venice Lido. Repower shares the Biennale’s vision of innovation and sustainability; it actively supported the event and made its diverse range of sustainable transport solutions available. On show in addition to Repowere, the first 100 per cent electrically powered boat, were the PALINA charging station, designed by Italo Rota and Alessandro Pedretti, the cargo bike LAMBROgino designed by Makio Hasuike, and two examples of the E-LOUNGE bench and charging station for electric bikes, which won the Compasso d’Oro 2020 award for its design.
Repower’s first podcast on sustainability, Rumors d’Ambiente, also gained an influential voice thanks to this sponsorship, with Alberto Barbera, director of the Venice Film Festival, giving an in-depth account of the relationship and synergies between the week of culture and an effective consciousness-raising campaign.
“Venice is the ideal field for experimenting with the portfolio of sustainability tools that Repower has created over the years. We’re firmly convinced that thanks to the high visibility in the media enjoyed by the festival and its protagonists, the message about paying more attention to new forms of mobility will be heard by a very broad audience,” explains Davide Damiani from Communications at Repower Italy.
