The facility will host Naples' creative and technological ecosystem and will be animated in the coming months by a series of activities being planned for the region: meetings with international mentors from the Talent Garden network, open innovation for businesses and startups, and, above all, training programs in technical subjects aimed at young people from the South.
"Naples is a city where tradition and innovation coexist and enrich each other. Campania, the third-largest region for innovative startups with over 1.420 new businesses and the second-largest for certified incubators, is increasingly establishing itself as an innovation hub in Italy," said Irene Boni, CEO of Talent Garden. "Campania is ready for a new phase of transformation, and with the new Talent Garden campus in Naples, we are committed to being a fertile ground where new generations of innovators and entrepreneurs can grow, learn, and turn their brilliant ideas into tangible realities."
According to the Piepoli study "Young People and Digital" conducted for the occasion, demand for digital training is growing among younger generations in Southern Italy, particularly among women.
