| Summary: | Piedmont is one of the top ten manufacturing regions in Europe and enjoys the highest levels of business investment in R & D in Italy. Birthplace of the most famous Italian automotive company - Fiat--and home to many heavy engineering and manufacturing firms, the region has long been a central part of the national industrial core.
