Fondazione Italia Digitale is born, the first in Italy dedicated to 360-degree digital policies

The Italia Digitale Foundation was born, a new and innovative reality in the Italian and European panorama, which aims to be the privileged place for the discussion and development of digital policies at public and private level. “The pandemic has accelerated processes and paths linked to digital, it is time to do even more and make a contribution so that digital opportunities are exploited in the best possible way and at all levels. The Foundation was created to be a reference point for the public and private sectors to better address the changes that digital is bringing on a social, cultural, political, economic level ”, explains Francesco Di Costanzo, President of the newly created Foundation. The Foundation was born from the experience of the Pa Social Association which in a few years has become the authoritative representative of the operators of digital communication and information. With a large number of associates and an intense and fruitful dialogue with all subjects, public and private, involved in the development of the digital ecosystem, the Foundation expands the mission of the association, gathering additional energies (private and public) and having the goal of representing a point of reference in the world of digital at 360 °. The Founding Members are: PaSocial Association, Open Comunicazione, Lievito Consulting, Istituto Piepoli, Associazione PerCorso, Media Data, datamagazine.it, citizensiditwitter.it. “In the last year a new scenario has rapidly opened – adds Francesco Nicodemo, spokesperson of the Foundation – the tables to be addressed are numerous and important. From copyright to privacy, from the implications and consequences of the Digital Service Act and the Digital Markets Act to the role of the “platform economy”, from the impact on the lives of citizens and companies of artificial intelligence and 5G to the role of digital tools in the development of the circular economy and much more. The first months of our activity will be dedicated to providing focus on priorities and start the first work tables “. The first appointment is for September, with a presentation event in Rome. The Foundation is open to membership of individuals and organizations.
