Resources needed
Around 30.000 €
Evidence of success
MetroDigital demonstrates the successful cooperation between the Metropolitan public authority and the Regional ICT Cluster. MCT and Piemonte Innova Foundation – of which MCT is a founding partner – identified actions to concretely support the technological innovation of local authorities, to the benefit of citizens and enterprises, by making rational and effective use of available resources (starting with RRF funds), to generate opportunities for the competitiveness of the whole territory.
Potential for learning or transfer
MetroDigital is highly transferable in other European regions, since its main successful factor has been the strict cooperation between the Regional ICT Cluster, the Metropolitan public authority and its municipalities for the pursuit of a widespread public interest.
The main result is the mapping of the state-of-the-art of digitalisation in the area selected (metropolitan), which will form the baseline and framework for future actions and initiatives to foster digital innovation and competitiveness in the area. It is also a key element for the impact evaluation of future policies and measures which will arise on the topic.
