The name GEA, which in classical mythology represents Mother Earth as the origin of the world, is also the acronym for Green Economy (and) Agriculture, and it is the most recent instrumental company created by the Fondazione Cassa di Risparmio of Pistoia and Pescia.
GEA pursues the mission of maintaining and enhancing its vast green area and creating a Science and Biotechnology Park to allow for a fruitful exchange between local entrepreneurial activities, the world of research, advanced training and advanced services to businesses, with particular reference to the sectors of sustainable agriculture, renewable energy and the circular economy, as well as the health and well-being of citizens.
