More opportunities in the IT world for young people and companies: The IT Observatory Report

Digital in Italy is growing at twice the GDP, with a forecast of 2.3% steady up to 2.8% in 2020, thus predicting a turnover of approximately 75 billion euros ; this is the 2018 report presented at the event "Internet of skills - the development of IT in Puglia and the necessary skills" .
The aforementioned analysis, conducted by the IT Observatory of the Puglia IT District, reveals encouraging data: "The Puglia IT sector is solid, dynamic, growing, and defies the clichés that consider it engaged, especially in supplying public administration," explained Salvatore Latornico, president of the Puglia IT Productive District and Openwork . "However, further efforts are needed to promote Puglia's perception as a region of innovation. This can be achieved through concrete strategic collaboration between universities, institutions, and businesses, the three key players in innovation processes. The implementation of policies to foster the region's digitalization and support the industrialization of innovation, achieved through consolidated collaboration between businesses and the research community, could strengthen the local production system and motivate many young people to stay in Puglia. At the same time, to improve the match between these two sides in the professional market, business labor demand must be more accurately targeted and specialized .
This analysis was also confirmed by Marco Gay, president of Anitec-Assinform, who expressed his perspective on the prospects: "To foster this growth, we need policies that increase the spread of innovation and technology, as was done with Industry 4.0 and Enterprise 4.0, which have represented a tremendous opportunity for organizations."
