European project to map 250 thousand organizations in Alpine Area

Modena - Seven countries and forty-eight European regions are the areas involved in RE-SEARCH ALPS - Research Laboratories in the Alpine Area, a Unimore coordinated European scientific project aiming to create an initial impressive mapping of more than 250 organizations carrying out research in the areas involved in the study, with a view to perfecting a transnational tool, the first of its kind in Europe for thoroughness and amount of information, that can bring together companies and scientific organizations.

Unimore is leader of the consortium which the University of Milan, MUIR, the French Ministry of Education and the company, Data Publica-C-Radar are members of. It is co-financed by the EU (INEA - Innovation and Network Executive Agency), which has 850 thousand Euro at its disposal. The information gathered by the researchers will be channeled into a database, available on the EUSALP platform, Platform of Knowledge, that will store all the data of the organizations involved in research and will be made available free of charge to all interested users, referable via presentation sheets or a 3D map of the macro Alpine area.
