An early precursor to Argentina’s National Institute of Industrial Technology was created on 29 March 1943. This technical office coordinated studies on machinery, materials, and industrial processes. Its engineers evaluated production methods across several provinces. The office encouraged modernization at a time when industry was expanding quickly. Findings supported factories in improving efficiency and adopting new technologies. The institution later evolved into a broader national research network. Its creation marked a key step in shaping Argentina’s industrial scientific base.
