Montecreto, in the province of Modena, is one of the territorial initiatives pursued in recent years. This town in the Emilian Apennines is charting an innovative path for economic and social development, focusing on actions that put human capital and the use of technology at the center. Among the main lines of action is a commitment to spur growth by enhancing the area’s natural and cultural heritage. The idea is to promote experiential, sustainable tourism and find new uses for underutilized spaces, thereby revitalizing the local economy and enriching the tourism offering.
In parallel, Montecreto is focusing on urban regeneration, with the goal of bringing neglected spaces back to life and creating new development opportunities. Another key aspect is supporting the development of STEAM skills among young people and promoting professions tied to enhancing the territory, creating a link between training and local opportunities.
The ultimate goal of this project is ambitious: to build a network of innovators and foster shared, sustainable social and economic growth, benefiting not only the individual municipalities involved but the entire Modenese Apennines. It’s a model that aims to become an example of how tradition, innovation, and community can converge for a more prosperous and inclusive future.
