More efficient and intelligent water distribution
Pumping systems represent 20% of global energy consumption, and the energy consumption of water distribution systems is mainly dependent on these systems. How can we manage them in order to predict water needs, thus, distribution and storage needs? The answer is given by the LIFE SWSS project. Pumping systems are present in every industry and…
A small/big step in the nanosafety road
The ever increasing consumption of nano-enabled products and use of nanotechnologies raise a critical question: are we aware of the potential consequences of these products and technologies on human health and environment? The NANoREG Project, in which ISQ participated, helped to answer this question. When, in 2011, ISQ first met Tom*, it was almost impossible…
WE ARE TRAINING AND SKILLING FOR… FLYING!
In Europe, as well as worldwide, the aeronautical sector is linked to the idea of technological innovation, high strategic interest for economy and employment, not only for the techno logical innovations and real assets that it generates, but most of all because of the “business wave” that boosts the other orbital sectors, with great…

ISQ RESPONDS TO CUTTING-EDGE SECTORS
We believe that 2016, albeit tenuously, will be a turning point in the crisis cycle of the last five years. The country’s major industrial units are expected to intensify their shutdown periods for maintenance and, consequently, ISQ will boost service provision in this sector.At the same time, rather counter- cyclically, we have had and still have…
