“Florence is the fourteenth city to host a House of Made in Italy, a project that represents a meeting point to foster synergies between companies, citizens, institutions, universities, chambers of commerce and emerging technologies houses,” explained the undersecretary. “This space will be the direct channel between local realities and the Ministry’s general directorates, with the aim of supporting economic development, collecting the territory’s demands and enhancing Made in Italy”.
In addition to providing ongoing assistance to companies to optimize access to public incentives, the Made in Italy Florence aims to be a hub of dialogue between institutions and entrepreneurs, encouraging innovation and growth of local production. During the event, the Arts 4.0 Competence Centre in Tuscany presented some of the emerging technologies being tested, a preview intended to facilitate technology transfer to companies in the region. The opening of this space represents a further stage in the Ministry’s journey to promote Made in Italy as a motor for economic and cultural development, in Italy and worldwide.
