RINA

RINA is an Italian knowledge-based company that provides engineering solutions, testing, certification and digital services worldwide. Its website says it has more than 7,000 people working across 70 countries. In 2000 it inherited the know-how of one of the world's first naval classification registries, the Italian Naval Registry, and developed it into a multidisciplinary group.
