9:00 – Registration
9:30 am – New forms of work for new forms of innovation
Nello Iacono and Carlo Infante, States General of Innovation, lead
An open talk to discuss new business models, based on coworking, on the collaborative economy – Coworking in particular becomes the emblem of a strong and radical change, also because it identifies the contamination, interaction, sharing of the same place by workers of different organizations, or without organization, as a fertile ground for creativity and innovation.
Coworking is also increasingly spreading in Italy and is establishing itself not as one of the forms of work, but as the most concrete and effective expression of a new work culture, of a new social philosophy, not confined to freelancers and startups, but essential for all businesses and also for public administrations.
What are the new business models that develop on these bases, for SMEs but also for medium-large enterprises? What impact do the consequent practices of sharing, exchange and reuse between private individuals and between public and private individuals have on both the business and the innovation model? What role should the public sector, the administrations have?
The open talk explores these points, with the ambition of consolidating a shared position paper at the conclusion of the discussion, together with: organizers of networks and coworking spaces; companies (private and public) participating in coworking spaces; fablabs that integrate into coworking spaces; incubators that develop the potential of coworking; mobile workers; administrations participating in this change.
According to open talk format designed by the SGI Association, the meeting is divided into three phases:
- an initial opening session with presentation of the themes and ideas by the invited speakers;
- parallel groups on two areas of study (Smart Working and Urban Coworking), also in “whisper talk” mode (the group converses thanks to the radio headphones, whispering);
- a final session with feedback from the working groups, final comments and visual thinking with twitter wall: #smartWorking #urbanCowork #InnovaConf

October 21 – Conference
The October 21 program is organized in 3 sessions, preceded by the Opening Session. The day ends with a Round Table. The 3 sessions correspond to the three types of subjects involved in the innovation processes:
- Innovation Champions: companies, especially networked SMEs, which despite operating in very different sectors, are characterized by being able to innovate by adopting winning solutions,
- Innovation Angels: organizations that provide innovative solutions aimed at the Innovation Champions intervene, in particular there are the testimonies of European projects, academia and industries.
- Innovation Promoters: organizations that facilitate innovation, with regulatory, financial, infrastructural interventions, etc.
The central objective of the conference is to provide concrete elements, creating a 'pragmatic' framework on what is happening in Italy today and what we can do to start a cultural process for new forms of innovation in companies. To this end, each speaker was asked to answer three questions:
- What do you think are the factors that can facilitate and promote innovation (Innovation Boosters)?
- What do you think are the factors that hinder and slow down innovation (Innovation Blockers)?
- Given the previous two points, what is its'vision', and the strategy to relaunch innovation in the country?
For this reason, no intervention has a title, or rather they all have the same title, represented by the three questions. The reports are expected to last 10 minutes.
