“Innovative Business in Trentino: It Can Be Done” is the title of the publication recently presented by the Foundation for the Enhancement of Trentino-Based Research (VRT Foundation), an instrumental body of the Caritro Foundation. The presentation took place at Palazzo Calepini as part of the Trento Festival of Economics and brought together key players from Trentino’s research, innovation, and business ecosystem.

At the latest meeting of the FBK Inspirational Talks, Francesco Ubertini explored the role of HPC in European scientific and industrial competitiveness, drawing on the experience of the major supercomputing project in Bologna, developed through collaboration among universities, institutions, and Europe.

At the RCS Energy Talk, Luigi Crema (FBK) highlighted the need to combine the energy mix with a strategy for technology supply chains. Hydrogen and batteries were identified as key levers to reduce dependencies and support European industrial development.

Promoted by University of Trento and Fondazione Bruno Kessler, the PhD in Industrial Innovation has, since 2019, combined three key factors for regional development: projects driven by business needs, applied research on real-world problems, and a dedicated three-year team. At its core is the connecting role played by each industrial PhD studentteam.
