    Federico Faggin, genio dei nostri tempi

    Maria Teresa Cometto(February 25, 2019)
    Federico Faggin è uno dei più grandi inventori dell’ultimo secolo – così lo definiscono gli storici della Silicon Valley - perché disegnando l’Intel 4004 ovvero “il computer su un chip” ha avviato la rivoluzione digitale che ha cambiato la nostra vita. Faggin è stato il secondo ospite della serie “Italian Creators of our Time” all’Istituto italiano di cultura di New York. Prossimamente uscirà in Italia l'autobiografia di quest'italiano ancora troppo sconosciuto dei nostri tempi. Faggin ci ha anticipato il racconto di alcune tappe fondamentali della sua vita.

    When we sat down with Alessandro Piol, the Italian venture capitalist based in new york who has 30 years of experience in the field of technology, he opened up about how his father— in Italy, a pioneer in the sector—taught him to love his work. He also explained how he chooses projects to finance and why New York presents even greater prospects than Silicon Valley. And he concluded with a little “message in a bottle” for young Italians looking to come to the City to develop an idea.
