Key Competitive Attractions
Apulia’s industrial base has seen radical change in the last two decades, with various sectors currently performing well in the region including steel-making, textiles, wood products, engineering and rubber industries. Businesses in these sectors have expanded in recent years, now providing 70% of jobs in the region.
A major contribution to the competitiveness of the region's economy stems from the existence of important research and development centres such as Tecnopolis CSATA.
This growth is facilitated and supported by modern infrastructure and a strategic geographical position along the Apulia coastline, with its many ports making the region an important transport terminal and tourism gateway to Greece and the eastern Mediterranean.
