A WARM WELCOME TO EMILIA ROMAGNAWhat does Italy bring to mind? The world’s finest cars, red Ferraris? The most delicious food, such as Parmigiano-Reggiano or balsamic vinegar? Fellini’s and Antonioni’s films or Luciano Pavarotti’s voice? Well, you may not be aware of it, but often when you think of Italy, you are actually thinking of our region, Emilia Romagna. Indeed, the secret of our success is in a story of continuous transformation and collaboration, always putting people at the center of our strategy, creating a cohesive community with high levels of employment and richness. But also a great sense of hospitality and entertainment.

We are used to having our brains here and our feet out there in the world in a history that has blended hard work with imagination. Our land is an invitation to get together, to meet, to talk and work together.

Now we are moving towards the digital transformation and if our region were a car we would say it is powered by a very special engine: collaborative institutions, outstanding research centres and universities fed by a quality school system with excellent links to business.

Our openness is not just a slogan, we’ve been one of the first regions in Italy with a specific law to support also foreign investors and, as you will see, we are still using our resources to pave the way to innovation and ambitious projects.

I hope that you will join us. I am sure that you will be inspired by us.

MOVING DIGITAL

EMILIA ROMAGNAMOVING DIGITALEmilia Romagna region is a top logistics hub linking Northern and Southern Italy, where top attractions meet world famous brands and industries. We are open and always moving. In this land of natural beauty, you can walk (or cycle) from the Appennino Tosco-Emiliano to the Po Delta - both Unesco sites - passing through historical cities and enjoying food and dance floors. That’s why the number of visitors has increased in recent years, and we were chosen as the Top European destination of 2018 by Lonely Planet. Moving, because we are the land of the Motor Valley, with Ferrari, Lamborghini, Ducati, Pagani, Dallara and many more companies that have collaborated to make this dream true. There is much more, and if you come and visit our companies, in mechanical engineering or the biomedical sector, in agri-food or fashion, or in the world ceramic tile capital, you will find there is a special spirit in everything we do. Moving, because we are the pivot that links Northern and Southern Italy’s central crossroads, where people and cultures, motorways and railways meet. We are a land of cultural exchange and trade. If you don’t believe us, take a look at our export figures, well above Italy’s average.Moving digital, because our transformation is always in progress and now we are working hard to become a world reference point for big data and digital manufacturing. Our world leading industrial productions – such as packaging machinery - are all moving towards digital manufacturing technologies, along with new companies ready to help solidify Bologna’s position as a global leader.Moreover, the Bologna Technopole won a competition at the European level to host the ECMWF data centre (European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts). Cineca - a consortium of universities in Bologna boasting one of the 20 most powerful HPC computers (High Performance Computing) in the world - will be moved to the same Technopole.Our education system is also moving to ensure that here you will find not only talent, but opportunities to grow as well. As an example, this territory, that boasts the first Western university, now offers more than 110 degrees and master programmes in the field of digital economy and industry 4.0.

“Moving” because people are still at the center of our strategy. www.investinemiliaromagna.eu
