Our innovation hub

Our office is located in the Tortona district in Milan, in a place symbolic of Italian economic growth. Discover the story of the former Ansaldo area and see how we managed to completely regenerate a brownfield site into an innovation hub.

IN THE FORMER ANSALDO AREA

Cariplo Factory was established within the former Ansaldo area in Milan. For almost a century, this industrial complex was home to unique projects and initiatives in Italy’s electromechanical industry, serving as the beating heart of productive Milan during the years of the economic boom.

100 THOUSAND SQUARE METERS

At the peak of its development in the 1950s, the industrial complex reached the 100,000 square meters for a total of 5,000 employees. The activity of the Ansaldo ended definitively in 1986, with a special concert by the Strings of the Teatro alla Scala in Milan.

SPIRIT OF EXCELLENCE

The space, now completely renovated and regenerated, has become an engine of creativity and innovation in the heart of Milan’s Tortona district. Cariplo Factory, in this sense, was created with the ambition to preserve Ansaldo’s spirit of excellence and innovation, combining it with new contemporary needs and sensibilities.
