Research and innovation
Reggio Emilia has been establishing its place over the past decade as a bustling hub of research and innovation with the Reggiane Innovation Park as the beating heart of this ecosystem. Its over 200,000 m2 are home to institutions, companies, universities, start-ups and research and innovation centres, serving as an easy gateway and fusion point for the entire Reggio Emilia region.
Innovation first and foremost has to involve training and research, where the UNIMORE University is the top point of contact in the region and one of the most important ones in Italy for teaching and research.
Research projects are developed at its laboratories and research centres, both specialist and multidisciplinary ones, and 5 of these can be found at Reggio Emilia’s Tecnopolo:

Various stakeholders then support start-ups and companies with innovation and technology transfer.
