Wobi 2021, Banca Mediolanum meets Amazon

The 2021 edition of Wobi, the World Business Forum which for over 15 years has represented the reference event for the Italian business community, offers the opportunity for the meeting and comparison between Banca Mediolanum and Amazon, two realities closer than ever before can think and that in their own way have revolutionized their respective areas of expertise. “Banca Mediolanum’s goal has always been to have the customer at the center of the project – explains Edoardo Fontana Rava, director of product development and business model of Banca Mediolanum – Although we are obsessed with numbers, our business develops around the customer and not around the product. This is a feature that brings us closer to Amazon. We are the only network in Italy to have such a wide diversification of its activities that it is the result of customer needs and this has allowed us to create a long-lasting relationship period with our customers “. To explain how important it is for a company to have a long-term vision, Mariangela Marseglia, Vice President and Country Manager of Amazon Italy and Spain, says: “Jeff Bezos, and with him the whole company does not focus on the results only of the first quarter in the future but think about looking at the next 5 or even 10 years. Looking only at the present can influence the actions of a company, perhaps leading it to invest less to obtain an immediate positive result. This is something we do not do. 10 years we presented negative profits to Wall Street, despite this analysts and lenders believed in the company that eventually started to present quarter with interesting profits “.
