MASA was established through a partnership between the Municipality of Modena and the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia, in collaboration with the Ministry of Infrastructure and Transport and the Ministry of Economic Development (MISE), with the support of the Emilia-Romagna Region.

Several companies from the automotive sector were among the first signatories to the initiative, and the activities are developed in collaboration with Aerautrodomo di Modena, AD Consulting S.p.A. and Danisi Engineering.

The expertise of leading companies and the research capabilities of the region’s most prominent universities work together with the aim of applying new digital technologies to mobility services, improving citizens’ quality of life from both an urban and environmental perspective.
