The Region empowers itself with additional resources to speed up the transformation of the area
New investments
The Emilia-Romagna Region approved the first law (in Italy) on Big Data, Artificial Intelligence, meteorology and climate change to further strengthen the Emilia-Romagna's positioning strategy to higher levels in the international scientific community.
The Region also signed a Programme Agreement with the Municipality of Bologna for the implementation of a tecnology hub at the Tecnopolo Manifattura, now DAMA.
Two "decreti legge" (national decree with the force of law) were further approved to
- complete the creation of the Technopole
- allocate resources and extraordinary powers to the Emilia-Romagna Region
- and for the construction of new facilities for international research activity.
