In 2019 the Ambrosetti Club launched a process of research that involved the main stakeholders in the Italian university sector in a dialog with business leaders and national and international experts to identify the problems to be solved and provide ten proposals to be implemented to create a real “University 5.0” in Italy.
Institutes of higher learning are the transmission belt between talent and expertise, play an irreplaceable role in all fields of research and benefit their local areas through the third mission.
But, today, are Italian universities in a position to play this proactive and indispensable role for the nation? What is required to loosen the knots of the Italian university system which currently limit their attractiveness and efficacy?
To respond to these questions, in 2019 the Ambrosetti Club launched a process of research and reflection that involved the main stakeholders in the Italian university sector in a dialog with business leaders and national and international experts to identify the problems to be solved and provide ten proposals to be implemented to create a real “University 5.0” in Italy.
As part of the Technology Forum Week, the results of this
study were discussed with the Italian Minister of University and Research, Gaetano Manfredi.
