The Memorandum of intent for the creation of a long-term national strategy for robodidactics was signed in Campidoglio on March 16, 2011 by 38 signatories representing the entire robotics productive chain, a number that has now risen to 62.
The objective is to stimulate and facilitate a farsighted process in the national economic system by combining the forces of all the key players in Italian robot science: industry, the services sector, universities, research centers, schools, and local, regional, and national government authorities. Synergy in action can foster a clear and definite awareness of the multiple career paths offered by robotics, from primary school to industry, and help guide students in the direction of careers in science and technology. The robot industry and services can orient the offers of education, training, and research in accordance with trends in robot science.
Robotics, another field of Italian excellence, brings benefits to society all across the board and can become yet another line of strategic development for smart specialization policies in Rome, the nation’s capital in order to meet the Europe 2020 challenge.
promote the constitution of significant groupings in each local territory with greater opportunities for access to public funding even at EU level and strengthen the offer made by every participating organization thanks to access to the resources shared by the system.
