"EVOLUTIO" - A Webuild cultural initiative
EVOLUTIO is a cultural initiative by Webuild that introduces a new narrative on infrastructures as a driver of economic, social, and industrial development, capable of fueling an entire productive and financial ecosystem.
A narrative that brings together memory and future, showing how major works have helped shape the country over the past 120 years and how they stand today as a strategic asset for Italy’s current and future competitiveness.
EVOLUTIO unfolds in two complementary dimensions: the exhibition and the digital Museum.
Evolutio - What would life be like without major infrastructure projects?
It would be like going back to the early 20th century, when people in Italy lived without running water, without electricity, without roads. Not everywhere, of course, but overall this was the reality—especially among the most vulnerable social groups and territories, where living conditions are the true litmus test of a country’s development.
Without infrastructures, Italy would be a different country: less connected, less competitive, less inclusive. Infrastructures determine real development—the kind that affects the quality of life of people, communities, and regions.

THE FOUNDATIONS OF OUR FUTURE
“There is an invisible bridge that has allowed society to cross the centuries, transforming isolated communities into modern countries, remote rural areas into industrial cities, elementary needs into opportunities for progress. That invisible bridge is known as infrastructure. If we look back, we see how every phase in human development has been triggered by an infrastructure: a road, a bridge, an aqueduct, a railroad, a dam.”
Pietro Salini, Webuild CEO
