Study visits
Centro Culturale Claudio Trevi
The Trevi Cultural Center was established by the South Tyrolean Provincial Government for the purpose of actively participating in the promotion and implementation of initiatives launched by the Italian Culture Department and related Cultural Associations.
The NOI Techpark brings together businesses, scientists and students to create conditions where innovation will flourish.
In the research areas of Alpine technology, green technology, food technology and automation, the ideas that will determine our lives tomorrow are already generated today. A business incubator for setting up new companies, jobs and laboratories also offers gastronomic and cultural delights. The site of the former aluminium factory has been transformed into the NOI Techpark, providing space for working and living.
