The Bio- Medical concentration is well represented by heading names and multinational Groups as GAMBRO Group, while the Textile and Garments Industry can count on very well famous names like Mariella Burani, Blue Marine, Marchese Coccapani, Silanco, etc. etc.
The Mechanical Industry represents a natural chromosome to the Modena blood; engines and cars have here their home land: New Holland, Ferrari, Maserati, Lamborghini are part of the Modena heritage.
The Agro business is also a strong component of the Modena economy as well as the Building Industry which counts several General Contractors operating all over the world.
