An impact project for Taranto

Taranto Circolare aims to make an impact by supporting the ecological transformation of Taranto, with a focus on the Città Vecchia. This platform is a springboard for projects, companies and services through analysis and knowledge of the area.

Measuring
to understand

On the platform the material and energy flows of the Città Vecchia and of Taranto can be measured, as well as the business models of the main players, to understand the local potential and stimulate circular change in the city. Measuring and understanding the reference reality are the first step for the creation of solid and impactful projects.
