Towards a techshoring strategy for Italy," presented at the 2026 Technology Forum organised by TEHA Group.

Against a backdrop of profound global change, intensifying geopolitical competition and rapid technological acceleration, technologies such as artificial intelligence, quantum computing, advanced robotics, biotechnology, energy technologies and defence systems are playing an increasingly strategic role in shaping the competitiveness of economies and industries.

• Italy's position in the race for the technologies of the future, highlighting its scientific and industrial strengths, areas of excellence, and the key challenges related to innovation and talent development;
• the strategic choices required to strengthen the country's technological sovereignty and long-term competitiveness by fostering innovation ecosystems, attracting capital and talent, and accelerating the translation of research into industrial development.
