Pandemic, global challenges and digital innovation.
The health emergency of the last few weeks is affecting many countries, economic, health, educational and training systems. The consequences of this situation are found in the daily lives of every person, family, school and company, not only nationally, but also internationally.
This emergency situation leads us to accelerate the reflections on the global challenges that we are facing in recent decades and on how much more an integrated international strategy is needed, starting from the cooperation between all the actors involved: companies, ONP, professionals, Startups, Institutions and institutions government, investors, journalists, innovators, policy makers, researchers, business leaders and citizens.
Today we have an enormous technological potential which, combined with genius, creativity and human capital, can be used to face the great challenges of our time. Robotics, Artificial Intelligence, Big Data, advanced Communication and Marketing tools, prototypes, virtual and augmented reality, today more than ever, can be used to identify support opportunities to face the great global changes and international emergency contexts.
