OPT is proud to have its premises in Trentino since more than 90 years.
A dynamical and safe region in a landscape that makes the difference: home to the fabulous mountains called Dolomites, 60% of the area covered by woods, 200 alpine lakes, 3 natural parks, enchanting valleys … and one of the highest rate in Italy in terms of equitable and sustainable well-being.
This location in the heart of the Alpine Dolomites ensures several advantages, such as:
- Logistics – thanks to its strategic position, Trentino has a very efficient infrastructural and logistic transport system;
- R&D – With more than 20 public and private research centres, an internationally and nationally top- rated university and more than 3.000 researchers, the province of Trento is known as a top-level hub in the main important international research and technological development centres networks
- Polo della Meccatronica (Mechatronics Research Centre) – a centre built according to the highest quality and sustainability standards which offers a unique possibility to research, experiment and create high-value products
However, the main feature that represents the best advantage for OPT is the high life quality of this region, one of the highest ones in Europe.
Trentino boasts a modern and efficient welfare, an excellent school system, a top-quality health care and a natural heritage of extraordinary beauty.
Such well-being is reflected positively also on the quality of the work done by OPT staff (happier and calmer people work better) and therefore also on the quality of our product.
