WHAT IS GIOIN
GIOIN is designed to deepen the opportunities of open innovation of processes, products and services, using technology platforms, through the collaboration with innovative startups.
GIOIN is in fact focused on sharing concrete experiences and “case histories”, by involving entrepreneurs and startuppers who are putting into practice the paradigm of Open Innovation in their fields.
GIOIN – Gasperini Italian Open Innovation Network – is the brainchild of the late Enrico Gasperini, Founder of Digital Magics and recognized as a pioneer and innovator, who passed away prematurely in November 2015. GIOIN, in essence, provides companies with information, training and sharing paths orientated towards accessing support tools and stimuli, aimed at the search for unconventional solutions, critical to addressing the challenge of innovation, improving industrial processes, generating value and creating new products and services through digital innovative startups. The aim of GIOIN is to train future Innovation Officers within companies.
