Alongside the activities that will be held in this new area of the Opificio the purpose is also to provide a space where the Competence Center BI-REX can operate and carry out its pursuits in big data innovation and research excellence. Established in December 2018, it was the first among eight competence centres selected by the Italian Ministry of Economic Development to follow the framework set by the National Industry 4.0 Plan. The intent is to make these realities interact among themselves, taking advantage of the contiguity offered by the spaces to create and feed that fertile and common ground between training and application where innovation can flourish, giving new impetus to the Italian economic and industrial system.
