Business in Genoa
A port strip running from the Voltri container terminal to the old harbour serves container lines, ferries to Sardinia and Sicily, and the shipping agents, brokers and insurers that grew up around them. Ansaldo Energia makes power-plant turbines, Fincantieri builds cruise ships at Sestri Ponente, steel is rolled at Cornigliano, and the Italian Institute of Technology runs robotics research on the hills above the city.
Also known as Genova.
Where software helps: Shipping agents and freight forwarders in Genoa manage customs declarations, port dues and container movements for many clients at once, and need billing that splits disbursements, commissions and SdI e-invoices correctly.
