Intacture Data Center

Val di Non

Intacture is the first data center in Europe to be built inside an active mine in the Dolomites. With this revolutionary project, In-Site is changing the paradigms of designing complex digital infrastructures. 

Commissioned by Trentino Data Mine, a public-private partnership led by the University of Trento, the project is a pioneering example of reduced environmental impact. Our founder and CEO, Pietro Matteo Foglio, stated: “In designing the data center, we focused on community development, envisioning it not just as a space for machines, but as a campus — a place where tourism, cultural growth, and research centers coexist. This new data center opens the doors to new scientific and human-centered functions, challenging traditional infrastructure paradigms. Our goal was to push the boundaries of what a data center can be, integrating cutting-edge technology, sustainability, and community engagement. Intacture represents the future of data management, emphasizing sustainability and a deep respect for the natural environment surrounding it.”

The next-generation digital infrastructure, fully integrated into the region, involves a total financial commitment of €50.2 million — €18.4 million from PNRR funds and approximately €31.8 million in private resources — combining advanced technology, sustainability, and innovation, and representing a decisive paradigm shift for a rapidly growing sector in the era of digital transition.
