In 1945 the founder of the National Science Foundation ‐
Vannevar Bush ‐ foresaw that the unbounded frontier of
science would have been the premise of the economic
development in future decades.

The new scenario is that of an economic miracle led by
scientific research and technology.
The innovative production chain starts from the
research carried out in university laboratories, where
products, services and know‐how are developed and
launched into the global market, creating new values
and competitiveness applying entrepreneurial efforts,
based on start‐ups and spin‐offs and, above all, on
public‐private aggregations.

In order to achieve this goal and intervene on the
research‐innovation chain we have bet in some
scientific and technological areas where our University
is at an1advantage.
Specialization is risky but necessary, even in the high
tech world.

area where our University is at an advantage = se si intende "aree dove la nostra università è in vantaggio" (nel senso di capacità nell'area
scientifica e tecnologica), io cambierei in: areas in where our University excels.

Since 2005, we have mainly focused on nanotechnology
applied to cultural heritage. At first, by creating the
“Public
Laboratory
of
nanotechnology
and
nanomaterials for Cultural Heritage, BCNANOLAB”,
funded for € 2.950.000,00 by the Ministry of the
Economic Development, with resolution no. 17 of 2003
CIPE, RS‐19 project, Micro and Nano‐systems district.

To the
2 aim of increasing the cohesion of the system and
having a shared language between
• public and private research institutions
• technology transfer centers
• companies and banks
• venture capitalist and business Angels
In 2011, I submitted a proposal to create the District of
High Technology for the innovation applied to Cultural
Heritage, which was funded by a free grant of the
Ministry of Education, University and Research (MIUR)
for a total of 13 millions of euros, drawn from the PON
R&C funds, 2007‐2013.

To the aim of increasing non ha alcun senso in inglese, forse si intendeva "lo scopo è migliorare la coesione" ? Allora va cambiato in: The aim is
increasing the cohesion etc
