    <p dir=”ltr”>Hi guys, how is it going?</p>
    <p dir=”ltr”>In this period I’m attracted about smart cities and how it is possible to make smart a “traditional” city. For instance, how would you transform Genoa into a smart city with a feasible steps?</p>
    <p dir=”ltr”>I think Genoa has a great potential, think about all the excellent academic institutes that are present (IIT, CNR, University,…) but then, look at the digital services that the city offer…I think it’s a little bit poor. Even the statistics confirm this fact, Genoa is placed 26th among the 107 Italian provinces in term of smart city ranking (http://www.forumpa.it/smart-city/icity-rate-2018-la-classifica-delle-citta-intelligenti-italiane-settima-edizione) even if it is cultural ranking is pretty high (8th over 107, according to the IlSole24Ore report on the “life quality”:  http://lab24.ilsole24ore.com/qdv2018/.</p>
    <p dir=”ltr”>I’ve thought about an aspect of the city’s life that could be improved, for me improving the public transport it could make a life quality higher, but how? A possible solution could be use an app for the public transport, that don’t give the mere bus waiting time information, but it should be a powerful tool for the public transport provider to control and give a better service.</p>
    <p dir=”ltr”>With a startup attitude I’ve tried to develop an Android app for the Genoa public transport, trying to improve the look and feel of the actual app to better engage the user. This is just an exercise, I don’t care about selling my app or discourage the usage of the official app, but my scope it is just talk about smart cities and if this kind of solution could be viable for you.</p>
    <p dir=”ltr”>I’ve deleoped also an app for Google assistant, to interact with it speak to Google saying “Parla con Genova bus” and then try to ask waiting times at a specific bus stop like “mostrami i passaggi alla fermata Xx settembre 1” or “tra quanto passa il 20 alla fermata Xx settembre 1?”.</p>
    <p dir=”ltr”>I’ve written a small blog post and I apologize in advance for my storytelling (I’m an engineer 😟)

    <p dir=”ltr”>See you in the next Federmanager event on 7th of March</p>
    <p dir=”ltr”>P.S. I’m aware that yesterday the AMT released a brand new public transport app.</p>

    Hi guys!
    I’m Bartolomeo Tiralongo actually I’m working in RINA as “Innovation Solution Architect” but before this I’ve worked for 2 years and a half in Ferrari as “Powertrain Control Engineer”, it was an amazing experience but I couldn’t stay in touch with the stuff that I love: tech and innovation. I graduated at “Politecnico di Milano” in “Automation and Control Engineering” but always in love with programming at any level, from Android apps to web; in 2014 I’ve attended “InnovAction Lab” a wonderful “course” that taught me a lot about entrepreneurship, startup values and how to make a good pitch but more important I’ve met amazing people!
    I moved to Genoa only one week ago but I want to know more of the startup scene and, if necessary, help in grow it with you on this group 🙂

    Talking about Tesla, of course in an iper-regulated market Musk should take care of every statements that he writes and says and has to stay at the rules like any other player. Elon Musk is a disruptor and probably he is thinking in creating an its own market, I’m joking of course, but since the communication has changed dramatically from the past maybe is it the time to modify some regulations? Of course the content of your statement is up to your judgement 😉

    Bye! See you the 8th of November @ Manager 4.0
