\"\"“<\/span>It is a privilege to show this announcement, which includes projects that can be realized thanks to the collaboration between the Region and the Municipality. We are working for Expo, and the ones who will visit our city and the ones who will climb the Sacro Monte, will find innovative services<\/span>”<\/span>. This is the comment by the mayor Attilio Fontana <\/b>who, with the Assessor for the Tourism Sergio Ghiringhelli, <\/b>took part today, in Sacro Monte, at the presentation of the Region-Municipality co-financed project <\/span>“<\/span>Varese Smart City: between the lake and the Sacro Monte<\/span><\/b>”<\/span> <\/span>in the scope of the Districts<\/span>’<\/span> <\/span>announcement of the attraction. There were also the President of the Regional Council of Lombardy, Raffaele Cattaneo<\/b>, the Assessor to the Commerce, the Tourism and the Lombardy Tertiary, Mauro Parolini<\/b>, and the manager Danilo Maiocchi <\/b>with them.<\/span><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n

“<\/span>It is a project characterized by a deep knowledge of the territory; it considers the different dimensions of the city of Varese in an inclusive, operative and concrete way<\/span>”<\/span>, added Raffaele Cattaneo. <\/span>“<\/span>It is a project, that values the different opportunities offered by technologies, to contribute to the consolidation of the local firms in the name of innovation and valorisation of the local economy.<\/span>”<\/span><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n

 The Assessor Ghiringhelli has explained in detail the <\/span>“<\/span>actions<\/span>”<\/span> <\/span>of the announcement, for a total value of <\/span>€<\/span>1,140,000 (more precisely, <\/span>€<\/span>765,200 coming from the Municipality of Varese, <\/span>€<\/span>350,400 coming from the Lombardy Region, <\/span>€<\/span>25,400 from the public territorial partners, no-profit organizations and public and private subjects). A project that involves, besides the institutions, the association In Varese – Urban District of Commerce<\/b>, the associations of category Ascom<\/b> and Confesercenti<\/b>, the Foundation Paolo VI<\/b>, the Varese<\/b> Province<\/b> with the Agency of the Tourism<\/b> and the Regional Park Campo Dei Fiori.<\/b> <\/span><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n

“<\/span>There is a common thread from the centre of the city to the hamlet,<\/span>”<\/span> <\/span>explains the Assessor Ghiringhelli<\/b> showing the project. <\/span>“<\/span>One time, the centre accommodated wayfarers who then climbed up to the Sacro Monte. This is the core of our project. It is an integrated action on the centre of the city, the lake and the Sacro Monte to improve the attraction and the visibility of the tourist and commercial system, to encourage the trade among the three poles. It will also increase the infrastructures, the services and the evolved technological applications, in line with the highest standards of service known at an international level, and it will enhance a greater usability of the urban spaces. Commerce, religion, tourism: Varese can count on 1,200 businesses, with a flow of tourism of 117,000 people last year<\/span>”<\/span>. <\/span><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n
