Description
Summary:Piedmont is one of the top ten manufacturing regions in Europe and enjoys the highest levels of business investment in R&D in Italy. Birthplace of the most famous Italian automotive company - Fiat – and home to many heavy engineering and manufacturing firms, the region has long been a central part of the national industrial core.

This report reviews how Piedmont’s new regional strategy supports innovation and how its efforts can be improved.
