Rome, 19 December 2025 - The Pontine Science and Technology Park - Technoscience took part in the ceremony for laying of the foundation stone of the new Rome Technopole Headquarters, a symbolic and strategic event for the development of theItalian innovation ecosystem

The ceremony, held in the area of Pietralata in Rome, marked the official start of work on the future headquarters of Rome Technopole, an advanced research, training and technology-transfer infrastructure created with funding from the NRRP - Mission 4, with the aim of creating an integrated hub that fosters collaboration among universities, institutions, research organisations and companies.

Technoscience at the Heart of Governance

Technoscience is represented on the Steering Committee of Rome Technopole and took part in the ceremony through three institutional representatives:

  • il Director General of the Park,
  • il Head of the Biotech Competence Centre,
  • il Business Development Manager.

Participation reflects Technoscience's active role in promotingbiotech innovation, applied research and technology transfer between research and business.

Institutional authorities and partners in attendance

The foundation-stone ceremony was attended by important authorities and institutional leaders representing Italy's public and academic system involved in the project: 

  • Antonella Polimeni - Rector of Sapienza University of Rome and President of the Rome Technopole Foundation
  • Francesco Rocca - President of the Lazio Region
  • Roberto Gualtieri - Mayor of Rome
  • Roberta Angelilli - Vice-President of the Lazio Region
  • Giuseppe Biazzo - President of Unindustria
  • Marco Mancini - Secretary General of the Ministry of University and Research
  • Lorenzo Tagliavanti - President of the Rome Chamber of Commerce 

A Research and Innovation Hub for the Future

The Rome Technopole was established with the mission of becoming a centre of excellence for research, advanced training and technology transfer, integrating spaces for laboratories, teaching, startup incubation and public-private collaboration. 

The new facility, designed according to criteria of environmental sustainability and technological innovation, is conceived as a dynamic and inclusive hub designed to attract talent, startups, companies and investment, with the aim of strengthening the competitiveness of Italy's scientific and industrial system and helping to create new highly skilled employment.

To rapidly assess a project in biotech and translational medicine - from oncology and neuroscience to precision cardiology and telemedicine - we ask for: a clear clinical or industrial question, the available evidence (including negative findings), access to data and samples where applicable, a draft protocol (including ethical aspects), and hypotheses on biomarkers and endpoints. In return, we offer technical and scientific due diligence, the design of a credible TRL pathway and, where appropriate, support with regulatory strategy, validation and scalability.

The questions you ask us most often

It is an approach that defines the the actual biology of the disease (tissues, markers and omics profiles where indicated) and links it to diagnostic and therapeutic decisions diagnostic and therapeutic personalised. It does not stop at generic classifications or guidelines applied wholesale: it builds a individual pathway measurable through robust clinical endpoints.

An enabling role. The biobanks ensure traceable and comparable samples; the omics broaden the understanding of the underlying mechanisms (inflammatory, metabolic and genetic). When integrated with rigorous protocols and real-world data, make reproducible the evidence and accelerate translation towards clinical trials or clinical adoption.

How we turn ideas into projects

From initial assessment to validation: a collaborative method that turns knowledge, technologies and business needs into concrete initiatives.

01

Discovery and assessment

We start from the need, the scientific result or the available technology. We assess objectives, maturity, data, constraints and opportunities to define an initial realistic pathway.

02

Expertise and project design

We connect scientific and industrial partners and define activities, milestones, responsibilities and funding sources aligned with the expected outcome.

03

Validation and impact

We support experimentation, technology transfer and valorisation, measuring results and preparing the solution for its next step: adoption, partnership or market.
