I realize - The art of disruption
 |
I Realize
I Realize suggests a possible solution, contained in the double semantic meaning of the title itself.
It is the time to realize, the time to define and become aware of the unsurpassed limits, the unexplored territories, the unmet needs, in order to kick off a new disruptive phase and to realize new solutions, opening new research scenarios and building new sectors that should be able to spur economic and social growth.
Two days aimed at identifying unsolved problems, suggesting possible (technological?) solutions and stimulating the creation of new disruptive start-ups in different fields.
