Activities

  • A centre in Kilometro Rosso deals intensively with the foundation of new companies. Further training courses are offered specifically to managers and entrepreneurs with the focal point on innovations. This initiative was set up by further training centres and national and also foreign universities
  • Foundation of a research centre in the advanced materials field. The centre deals with the development of new technologies and industrial processes of shaping and compression of advanced ceramic materials for structural applications. It was initiated by private and public industrial and research institutions also as partners of Kilometro Rosso
  • Foundation of an excellence centre with the focal point on mechatronics in microelectronics, process automation, biomedicine and industrial automation. 70 private and also public research and industrial institutions have come together for this purpose
  • Foundation of a competence centre in the maintenance field (remote maintenance, simulation, diagnostics sensors, training). About 20 public and private industrial and research institutions and also Kilometro Rosso partnerships have come together for this purpose
  • Foundation of a research and development centre in the energy and environmental protection fields (experiments, technology innovations, energy regeneration, environmental compatibility, support, certification, safety and administration). A joint initiative by private and public industrial and research institutions and also Kilometro Rosso partnerships
  • Foundation of an excellence centre in the agricultural industry segment. The Institute for Cereals Cultures in Bergamo is integrated into Kilometro Rosso in order to support the scientific and technical new orientation with regard to its economic interests in the production area. The new centre is sponsored by diverse local and national institutions

Contacts to Germany already exist:

The first active research centre in the park was Brembo Ceramic Brake Systems“ (from January 2004), a Joint Venture between the Brembo Group and DaimlerChrysler.
Here about 100 persons are employed (researchers, engineers, highly qualified staff), among them also some Germans.
