digital transformation affects every aspect of life, through social networks, e-learning, e-health, smart cities…

Meritocracy
I believe in merit as the ideal horizon of equality of starting points and in the magical power of virtuous example

Enterprises
for a performant business ecosystem, linearity and meritocracy should become a must from which virtuous companies must not escape

Politics
politics deals with the government of the country in the general interest and should therefore be a noble mission halfway between realism and idealism

The initial push that led me to this blog
In the various phases of my life I had the privilege to represent the worlds I frequented within the management of those institutions: at school on the board of directors, at university on the board of directors of the Regional Agency for the Right to University Study, at the Register of Chartered Accountants on the board of directors, in the enterprise world as national vice-president of Assoconsult – Confindustria and at the Chamber of Commerce on the Board of Directors. During those periods, I experienced first-hand the damage caused by ignorance and selfishness. I was shocked because so many people underestimated the perverse consequences of their actions.
I started this blog for my food for thought, because thinking with one’s own mind makes us free from false conventions and bad habits. Mitigating ignorance and selfishness helps creating a more harmonious and tolerant world.

Milan is the leader in tricolor fintechs, while in the south they have not yet taken off
As in many other sectors of digital transformation, fintech offers a new vision, allows you to do better things that are already done in a traditional way and allow you to do new things that were not feasible until now. It is a growing trend and in Italy fintechs speaks Lombard, because half of the tricolor fintechs are based in Milan, while the other half mostly in Lazio and Emilia Romagna. They could also be... »

Business mood and reshoring trend following Covid and the war in Ukraine
In recent weeks the mood of companies has been rather low, confidence in the future has been lost and you know sentiment in the economy is a very impactful figure. For a year with Mario Draghi in government and considering the expectations on the Recovery Fund a bit of optimism had been created which has now waned, both because the parties are making life difficult to the reforms advocated by the former ECB president and... »
