Description
The Former Physics Pavilions of the Mostra d’Oltremare house a unique scientific and cultural heritage, bearing witness to a period of great innovation and intellectual activity. Today, these historic spaces offer an extraordinary opportunity to become a catalyst for social and cultural development through the establishment of a Center of Excellence dedicated to innovative scientific and technological research, continuous education and training, as well as dissemination of scientific knowledge. The restoration and revitalization of these pavilions is the central mission of the "All’Ombra del Cervo di Rodi" Association, which recently organized a workshop to identify potential research opportunities, technological advancements, and educational initiatives that could shape the envisioned Center of Excellence. Starting with a brief historical overview, the workshop’s key activities will be presented, alongside preliminary concepts for a feasibility plan aimed at creating a Center of Excellence, which could be focused on quantum research and implementations, as well as on continuous education.
