Termini Imerese is now betting on innovation

The Meccatronica Cluster Sicilia has inaugurated an Innovation Hub in Termini Imerese, offering services such as a 5-axis numerical control machine and 3D scanners for small businesses to test and prototype components. The hub was attended by local officials, including Maria Terranova, Gaspare Vitrano, and Edy Tamajo. Meanwhile, a meeting will be held today to discuss the future of the former Fiat and Blutec site, which has been inactive for 15 years, with representatives from Pelligra, Nicolosi Trasporti, and Caec expected to attend.

The site's future is tied to an undisclosed industrial plan, with 65 workers already employed and a possible extension of cash integration for another 12 months. The Meccatronica Cluster Sicilia's Innovation Hub was financed by the Region with 1.5 million euros.
