Nuova Bovisa

Alieno added this project

Bovisa is becoming the major player of the most innovative urban redevelopment project ever achieved in Milan, bound to lead the city future development as well as the whole Italian economic and industrial system.

On a 850,000 sqm area will rise the first real international centre dedicated to research and innovation concerning the issues of energy and sustainable mobility: an ecosystem which will connect university facilities and industry attracting investments from abroad and providing knowledge, structures and resources, as International Science Parks already do.

The first concept master plan was commissioned to Rem Koolhaas'OMA firm.

Drawing on a functional mix of housing, services and research facilities, New Bovisa will become a nerve centre of the city. The physical closeness between university and industry will encourage synergies and the development of projects, technology, ideas and scientific discoveries.

In these last few years the Bovisa district has undergone a real rebirth thanks to important institutions such as "Politecnico di Milano" University, Triennale Bovisa Exhibition Centre, Telelombardia digital television centre and Mario Negri Institute, a cutting edge centre for pharmaceutical and biotechnology research.

Thanks to these strategical factors, Bovisa is the ideal place for the birth of a Science and Technology Park where both university and entrepreneurship will be the engine of the international economic development, able to attract resources and investments also from abroad.

The Programme Agreement has involved many players: EuroMilano, Milan Town Council, "Politecnico di Milano" University (already present with Architecture, Design and Engineering departments), A2A, who owns the gasometers area, "LeNord" Railway company (Ferrovie Nord Milano) with Bovisa-Politecnico Station and The Chamber of Commerce of Milan, who wants to build a centre for the promotion and the support of innovation processes and technological spin-offs for enterprises.

Moreover, thanks to Fondazione Politecnico, EuroMilano is creating synergies with enterprises and universities of Silicon Valley, presently the most productive Science Park in the world. The aim is to increase the reliability of Bovisa, to make the project known nationally and internationally and to make Bovisa a landmark for Italian and European universities.
