Basilicata regional development and R&D growth

Overview

Basilicata has demonstrated significant growth in Research and Development (R&D) spending, with Istat reporting a 10.4% increase in the region. Regional President Vito Bardi attributed this rise to the quality of local research centers, the University of Basilicata, and strategic corporate decisions intended to address energy and digital transition challenges.

In a separate development regarding regional support, the Democratic Party has proposed a 6 billion euro legislative plan specifically for Basilicata’s internal and mountainous areas. This proposal aims to improve infrastructure, healthcare, education, and transport, while offering incentives for professionals such as doctors and teachers to work in these regions, which comprise approximately 90% of the territory.
