University of Pisa (CPR)
CPR (Consorzio Pisa Ricerche) is a non-profit organization created to promote and coordinate the transfer of innovative technology and expertise from the university and research environment to industry and other areas of application. This is carried out through R&D projects funded by private companies and public institutions, as well as participation in major national and international technology development programmes. Activities underway are chosen to reflect areas of prime strategic importance for innovation in a local and in a broader national or international context.
CPR was set up in 1987 in Pisa, Italy, as a joint initiative of the Italian institute for public enterprise (IRI) and the National Research Council (CNR).
