“The Big Bluff of the ItalianSharing Economy” (Business Insider, 28 Nov. 2016) “…il numero delle piattaforme cresce ma l’utenza non è significativa, gli investimenti e le regole sono disordinati e insufficienti, le sentenze della magistratura hanno sepolto i servizi nuovi e le facce che girano tra convegni iniziano ad avere il sapore di vecchio…” “…Il numero dei siti e delle App nel 2016 è aumentato del 10% rispetto al 2015, arrivando a quota 206, ma il 30% di quelli censiti l’anno scorso sono già inattivi. Cioè morti prima ancora di avere una chance, o appena dopo aver scritto un comunicato stampa annunciando lo sbarco sul mercato. Più della metà delle piattaforme (il 51%), poi, ha meno di 5 mila utenti e la metà dei siti dedicati al crowdfunding (49%) meno di 500 donatori: non raggiungono insomma la massa critica per farsi conoscere e scegliere…” In a few words on the basis of the data from “Sharitaly”: platforms, apps and services are growing at 10%, but mortality is very high at 30% and 50% of those still alive do not reach the critical mass needed.

Exporting Through Tech An international mindset will give Europe a unique opportunity to export its technology, innovation, and values to other parts of the world.

And GuessWhat… (1957) (2016)
…in Case of Doubts (The National Museum of American History) “With his love of Italian design, Jobs was surely inspired by the Olivetti style in developing everything from the Mac to the iPhone and the iPad… …Jobs also shared the Italian’s passionate concern for architecture and ambience… nothing short of obsessive about planning his Apple stores, insisted on covering the floors with the same gray-blue sandstone he had seen in Florence sidewalks during a 1985 trip to Italy.
