TORINO AND ITS PROVINCE

TORINO REPORT CARD

_*

The province of Torino is the fourth in size in Italy in terms of number of enterprises and the ranks in second place for exports, after Milan. The contribution of the area to national wealth is remarkable: the GDP of the province of Torino in 2008 was comparable to that of coun-tries such as the Slovak Republic and Morocco. This is the result of a well-established industrial tradition in addition to a constantly growing ter-tiary sector.

The crisis that struck the world economy at the end of 2008 has also had repercussions on the Torino economy. The manufacturing produc-tion, after a period of considerable reducproduc-tion, seems to be slowly recovering from this difficult moment.

Torino has good potentials for overcoming these difficult times by laying stakes in the most in-novative sectors - aerospace, environment and energy, biotechnologies - and by seeking re-newed impulse in the traditional automotive and mechanical production sectors.

Finally, the province has an excellent under-graduate and postunder-graduate university education portfolio and increasing tourist potentials.

Territory, population and environment

The province of Torino is the second in size in Piedmont after Cuneo in terms of surface area: nearly half of the 6,829 square kilometres of the province is mountainous and the rest is equally distributed be-tween hills and plains. The province is instead the first in Italy in terms of number of towns: 315, three-quarters of which are located on the hills or in the mountains.

The population on 31 December 2008 was 2,290,990, specifically 52% women and 40% resident in the city of Torino. This was a +0.6% increase with respect to the previous year and mainly deter-mined by a foreigners, the growth rate of whom is higher than that of the Italian population: during the year, foreign residents increased by +12.4%, reaching a total of 185 thousand individuals, 8.1% of the total population. The most numerous are rumanians, who alone ac-count for approximately 46% of the foreign population and whose community has grown by +16.7% during the past year.

The province has excellent attraction potentials and is competitive also in terms of infrastructures. Despite a minor decline in number of passengers and flights in 2008 - due to the waning of the effects of the Olympics in 2006, year in which airport traffic reached its peak

-Caselle airport has experienced an increase of passengers of over 20% (3.4 million in 2008) and of international flights of 7%, with 268 destinations during the past year.

Among the numbers that clearly describe the “health” of the province of Torino and its environment, some of the most signifi-cant are definitely those related to rubbish sorting, which reached 49.1% in 2008, totally 571 thousand tons of waste, with a +5.2% growth with respect to the previous year. Over 60% was organic ma-terial and paper. The number of electricity generating plants using re-newable sources was also on the rise: during the first semester of 2008, there were 80 plants running in the province of Torino, in view of 66 of the same period of 2007, and 30 were being planned (29 the year before). This is respectively 32% and 34% of those being built or planned in Piedmont.

Economy and business

With a Gross Domestic Product of over 66 billion Euros, the province of Torino generates over 4% of Italy’s entire national wealth. This value ideally places the area on the same level as countries such as the Slovak Republic and Morocco.

A production base of 235,912 registered enterprises at the end of 2008 contributed to creating this added value: the fabric grown in the service sector has over the past decades while maintaining its tra-ditional industrial calling combined with new production specializa-tions. The result is a network spanning from IT&C to instrumental mechanics, automotive, aerospace, biotechnologies, food and wine, hydrogen and renewable energy sources.

Service enterprises (trade, tourism, services for companies and indi-viduals) today amount to approximately 60% of the total enterprises in the province. Trade is first (with over 26% of the total of regis-tered companies), followed by services for enterprises (24%). Con-structions and tourism have significantly increased over the past years as a result of the Olympic Games, while the industrial sector has es-sentially held its former ground. The entrepreneurial vocation of the

province is confirmed by the 70% of the value added for 2007 pro-duced by the sector of services and nearly 30% by industry in general. In the specific instance industry in a strict sense produces nearly 25% of the value added of the territory, constructions a few less than 5%. Despite the world-wide recession, the internationalisation process remains a major challenge, a challenge the province in winning as a result of its traditionally strong export propensity. Means of transport are the main export (40% of the total), followed by machines and mechanical apparatuses (21%), machines and electric-electronic de-vices (10%). France is the main trade partner of the Torino area and sales are developing in new European Union countries, such as Poland, which is today ranks in third place.

The province of Torino has always been qualified as an innovative district, and this is witnessed by various indicators, such as the num-ber of filed patent applications: European patent statistics show that the Torino area is a driver in terms of innovative capacity.

Since the early 1980s, the province of Torino has been typified by a constant, gradual growth of employment in the service sector: with respect to 2007, employment in the tertiary sector has increased by 30 thousand individuals, now totally 66% of the total (approximately 64% in 2004). The industrial sector is against the current trend and has experienced a contraction from 27.4% 2004 to 25.6%, despite remaining the traditional calling of the district. After years of de-cline, the number of people employed in agriculture started growing again in 2008.

Tourism and quality of life

Piedmont and the province of Torino have gained major international visibility over the past years, above all as an effect of the Winter Olym-pics. The city was the first to enjoy the positive effects created by this event: Torino and its environs have become a tourist destination ca-pable of attracting national and international visitors as a result of the urban, architectural and infrastructure renovation projects undertaken over the past years.

Visitors from France ranked in first place in 2008, followed by tourists from the UK, Israel and Russia.

Congress tourism is a consolidated by economic sector for the province: congresses increased by 5.6% in 2008 in Torino, with over 1.6 million participants and 2 million attendances.

The cultural portfolio of Torino and metropolitan area increased in 2008, further witnessing the strong attraction potential of the area: with respect to the previous year, the number of visitors to museums in-creased by over 13%. Confirming the positive results obtained at end of 2007, Reggia di Venaria ranked first in 2008 for number of visitors, followed by the National Cinema Museum and the Egyptian Museum.

Families from Torino maintained their interest in cultural events as a response to the increased offering: on an average spending of 2,586 euro a month, the expenditure for leisure and culture held its ground (7.1% of the total). More in detail, approximately 12% of the total monthly expenditure is dedicated to food, and the remaining 88% to non-food items.

Families in Torino are increasingly more technological: the number of satellite navigators and PDAs doubled from 2008 to 2007, and the number of MP3 players increased by 50%. Digital TV decoders and ADSL connections have started becoming very popular.
