but other revolutions are necessary
so that the technological revolution e
digital can be done in the future for
try to answer this question
let’s try to imagine this together
future not far from here
let’s try to imagine Sicily in 2040
I did a bit of accounts not with the
versions of our phones we will have
the iphone 20 we will have 3d printers a
home with which to print objects
if we are autonomous or even
we could print some food somehow
it will be our mobility with these
cars connected to them too
and of course the connections will be
very fast available to everyone
we will be connected with the rest of the world
or maybe from a concrete iron bridge
but from a digital bridge it’s true when
we talk about the future we always think of a
connoted very very positive and it is
just so be it but I think that
our future also has some
problems unknown something we have to
try to solve
and there is one in particular among the many
that is very dear to me because you see
in 2040 all studies say that the
our country Italy will have around the
same population that now just one
little more but the unpleasant phenomenon
is that the north will have a little more than
inhabitants while staying and Sicily
black many less and this because there
they are few opportunities and it is a
phenomenon that is already underway
many of our young people do not
we know with this sad sentence of the
brain drain are forced to
go away
mind you, I agree very much
fact that young people can have gods
experiences out
I prefer to call it a network of brains
however it is also very important that
these people can come back then too
in our Sicily
and then try to fight this
problem
I think it’s necessary that all of us have a grandfather
we also intervene because if not
we could find ourselves in a very great one
paradox that of a Sicily full of
opportunity but increasingly empty
I would not like this in Sicily
absolutely find me
I want to do something to find
avoid it but what this is for sure
just one of our many problems and has
certainly many causes but I would like
focus on one that I think
that is more important and I want to mention
free and a very very sentence
of tomasi of lampedusa in
sicily it does not matter to hurt or do well
the sin that we Sicilians do not
we never forgive is simply that
to do
and with this I believe it is unfortunately
of our negative features ne
we have many positive but this ce
we
if we keep fighting for something
small and we do not build something
bigger if we continue to be
individualists if we can not stand those who do
we will find ourselves with that problem that there
I said and with so many others and then
what are the other developments that
serve before the technological and
digital
I believe that a revolution is needed
cultural
just to solve that problem is
since I deal with the company of
innovation I’ll try to look at it from
this point of view and you know I have it
I reflected and believe that I actually do
a revolution and doing business is almost
the same thing because they have so many
things in common, first of all doing business
it is in itself a small great deed
revolutionary and then businesses
evolution has many things in common
the risk the opportunity sacrifice e
dare and then let’s try to
imagine that doing business can not
be possible and so if you do one
revolution is necessary to do business
it is at least opportune in this
historic moment
rather I want to tell you more in my opinion
do business and sexy and the right time
there’s a world out there that starts
cheer for those who want to do business
there is a regulatory framework that improves and
there are so many businesses that are
being born and to give you a testimony
I want to do this in the most way
sexy numbers can these numbers
represent framework in our country in
this moment there are more than 6,500
innovative start-ups that are born for
solve problems there are more than 9,000
people who are giving jobs
but the most beautiful datum of all is that
there are more than 25 thousand members of these
start up
because you know the business and the
revolutions are not done alone
they usually do together
enough of rigorists instead in the
no new business if it is shared
all together and they have generated us
turnover in 2015 of more than half
one billion euros
imagine how big and bigger it will be
this number at the end of 2016 considering that
they continue to grow at a pace
incessant day after day month later
month and therefore certainly can not be
only these numbers convince you
the idea of doing a business matures in
time it takes an idea it takes a team
but that’s not the only way
to do business
I advise you to do it experimented
it’s something that can really
change my life, however, the exhortation
do business or revolution and if
you want to do yours or otherwise
help those who are already doing it because
there are so many busy people
in their challenges in their businesses
in their great little revolutions e
So I want to tell you those more
beautiful that I met in Sicily in
these in these years
the first is the summer school of free
association names and numbers against the
mafias that every year we are the fire to
slopes of the Etna my friend Umberto
May organizes and where guys from
all Italy meet using
just half of the company
of innovation to try to solve
problems based on very strong values but
thinking that just through
the company may be possible
well this is innovation innovation
social
another case so we are in favor
where andrea and fiorinda to make me do a
favara
you have heard of us say from theirs
dream of their passion for the
diffusion of the culture of the other
of art have created a center of
cultural contamination where even more
little ones find space that eventually
It is transformed into a company both
a company because of the work of the
people create a value impact in the
territory grows from an opportunity one
hope
this cultural innovation and then that
catania we also have a home
of innovation is called v.cap where
lots of guys
to make their business work together
businesses are something fantastic
each of them
It deserves to be here on this
stage to tell what they are
doing
to tell their dream and how
through the resolution of a problem
they try to make this world a little bit
better and this is definitely
technological innovation and beautiful
like these places
at the end of social innovation
cultural or technological actually do
of all these three wait for them
their fundamental value
but there are also some things in which I am
I’m committed in the first person because
to solve that problem I had
spoken I think we have to all do one
little piece and these are the ones I have
decided to do it
this is the project we do
with the schools here in Sicily
dissemination of business culture
you know I became an entrepreneur and
own school and therefore perhaps for this reason
reason I believe that spread the culture
of business school is very important in
these years more than 50 institutions in
Sicily more than 150 business projects
of the boys who attend school
higher and we have involved more than
2500 because entrepreneurship a
school is not important just because
these kids can become
entrepreneurs but important because
the entrepreneur is a methodology is
an attitude a way of thinking
entrepreneurial entrepreneur you
helps solve problems thinking
that change is a positive thing
we want to transmit this kind of
values and if it is true that the future of a
country and therefore also of ours
region is built starting from
School desks do this job
this volunteer work at school
It is extremely important
and the results I’m never chasing are of
great interest and then for me it is
beautiful to support start-ups in
I’ve done it a few times these years
but the most beautiful story is that of
adriano and enrica d now of their fibers
they transform from the scraps of the citrus fruits and
they create fabrics is a great dream when
a few years ago I decided to help her and
invest even if the project is
beautiful name do you realize I do not have
invested in the project but on them
because their dream them their strength
determination and it was something
travo
nothing and you notice that you try to give
your experience your support maybe
even some money some time in
reality from an experience of the kind in
paris a lot because even if mine
enterprise only a few years more than
that of joining and enrica I too have
a lot to learn from them
and this is something they could do
all businesses if you think about innovating
helping those who want to create 11 companies and
creating a positive contamination e
with another woman instead I decided to
make a company will be very active in the
innovation sector in the context of
food together we have created this
ecosystem on the futures food site
where every year we host kids from
all of Europe from America from various parts
of the world that help us innovate one
of the sectors in which we are leaders those
of food with their ideas and theirs
determining their talents by watching us
from the outside it is an environment
multicultural that you see in this picture
where many countries are represented
and this year we also had here
in Sicily it is a beautiful summer
school is however the talents as well as
intelligence is fair
distributed from the world of the world and therefore
they do not come only in America
from Europe from Asia but they also come
from other places also from Africa there are
of talents that can really change
things have the desire to change them
things to change everything because they do not have
nothing and so when a few weeks
ago I met this guy
extraordinary chris that to the idea of
help migrants to use their best
technologies to be formed to improve
and also to become entrepreneurs and I have
decided to help him support it
because our little action of
each of us when a new business
born when new dream is born can
really help to help change
things and then we saw how
so many stories, so many stories that are
falling right now they use
innovation technology to try
to change things then to that
question that was at the beginning I try to
give an answer or innovation
save
but the south in my opinion no innovation
will not save the south because the
digital technology is only one
tool the south will save them
people using these tools but
with the desire to do it we said it before
do and then I believe that only the
people can make this difference
only people can save and
improve our south
we can do these people
just us together
