To date, 116 schools have joined the Network of Phyrtual Innovation Gyms. From Sicily to Friuli, 17 Italian regions are involved. The new members are currently being mapped, including small municipalities such as Santo Stefano Belbo (Cuneo) or Castel Frentano (Chieti) with less than 4000 residents and large cities such as Rome and Naples.
