RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

One of the MeC’s goals is to take advantage of European and regional calls for Research and Development projects (POR-FESR and Horizon Funds) in order to increase its know-how and the network of companies it works with.
In the recent years, we have established close relationships with innovation hubs, local companies, universities and polytechnics, foreign companies, professionals, and innovative SMEs to participate in feasibility studies and platform projects. Together, we have launched numerous projects related to topics such as the electrification of commercial vehicles, battery swaps for heavy trucks, lean costing, lean manufacturing, Industry 4.0, electrification of agricultural tools, composite leaf springs for the automotive industry, and Masters on Higher Apprenticeship programs for Industry 4.0.
