Hi everyone! I'm David, a student of Theory and Technology of Communication at University of Milano-Bicocca and I'm starting my student internship in ITSME as "advertising & communication adept". During my apprenticeship I will analyze the community aspects and key factors to develop alternative communication/marketing strategies, both offline and online, to enlarge the ITSME community and to growth its brand awareness. For every candidate strategy I will speak with the community, to search for collaboration or feedback (this is very very important) about it. In the next weeks I will probably also publish a survey online, to know something more...
When we talk about the itsme project, its updates and so on we sometimes forget people that are hard-working to push this incredible adventure from a "strange, crazy idea" to something we can call "a product".
A live-shot that I took 5 minutes ago during an important...
Hi there,
I'm Ally. Now I'm studying Master in Business Design at Domus Academy in Milano. Before I came here, I was a project manager and online event planner of a social networking website in Taipei, Taiwan. Due to this work experience, I started enjoying working in internet social networking industriy and want to try and learn more different tasks in this field. During the stage period at ITSME, I will propose and implement a video format in order to distribute the information that ITSME has, to the community and networks. I think this could be interesting for people who want...
Few weeks back we launched an online concept evaluation, and we had promised an itsme t-shirt and badge to 10 of all the responses we get. Only 10 , because we cannot possibly send a t-shirt to all the responses, but we thank everyone none the less. Here are the names of soon to be itsme t-shirt owners :)
David Holt, David Belliveau, Mich, Fabio, Stefano Tullii, Till Schuemmer, James Maltby, Bharathan, Sebastian, Gerard.
will get in touch with you all shortly.
We are getting rather interesting feedback from the online evaluation therefore we have decided to continue it. If you haven't yet...
Itsme: me too!
My name is Isabella, but you can call me simply Isa. I study at the University of Siena… not for long, I hope :). When I graduate, I will have the possibility to say I’m an interaction designer. I like to find out new ideas and innovative solutions, by studying the interaction between users and technology, with the aim of developing new contexts for communication. Working contexts, learning contexts, entertainment contexts. I chose to serve these 3 months of internship at Itsme. The idea of a workstation, where people meet each other in venues and create stories fascinated...
Hey there,
I'm Duccio, Industrial designer. When I first heard about Itsme project I immediately asked for an internship and luckily, I got it. My role then, was to be the problem maker. Itsme was appearing infront of the public for the first time at Smau and had to be ready to answer a lot of questions. I tried to put these questions to surface ...Now I joined the Open Innovation team and I have been assigned tasks to carry out research related to services and product offerings. I will also be helping the team to coordinate workshops in collaboration with...

I am a 23 years old guy, living in Trentino, on top of the Garda lake. I love mixing jokes (thus fun) with daily work (thus my job), I sometimes feel like "Luigi Pirandello"(if you know what I mean). I was 18...
We love it when we receive feedback on our project, and we love it even more when someone tries to imagine different possibilities with Itsme. Like this week we received some explorations on Itsme scenarios from some of our superheroes(we introduced earlier). We happen to think that it is "so very bravo of them" to have developed these scenarios all by themselves. The scenarios are in Italian, but we really wanted to share them with you all, so here they are...
The first scenario tries to imagine the management of digital photos online and offline using Itsme.
The other three scenarios are...
Today I was at "Palazzo dei Giureconsulti" for the book launch of Elserino Piol's last work.
Many panelists, Giampio Bracchi, Giancarlo Capitani, Umberto De Julio, Francesco Miggiani; also Giorgio was there, speaking of startups, Innovation and Itsme of course.
But the reason why I'm writing this post is that I was really very impressed by Mr. Piol's talk.
77 years of experience (he is one of the fathers of Italian venture capitalism, what he calls "good finance") and a very smart vision about what is "innovation system" and how it can be developed.
If you have the occasion, listen to his words on innovation...
Say Hi to our superheroes who are helping us out with the evaluations at FDC in Florence.
Here are some pictures highlighting only a few of their superpowers.
1. Ability to know anything and everything about the concept evaluation.
2. Ability to manage all aspects of an evaluators visit to Itsme stand. This includes, but is not limited to, detailed description of the concept with the demo, recording all observations and queries made by the evaluator, not letting any evaluator leave without the Itsme t-shirt.
3. Ability to assist more than one evaluator at a time, and to generate, initiate discussions while doing so.
4....
