illimity talks
A format to look beyond patterns and shape possible futures. With inspiring personalities from different fields of innovation.
In the digital age, misinformation spreads at an unprecedented speed, fuelled by social media, sophisticated algorithms, and advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence.
Deepfakes, manipulation campaigns, and increasingly convincing fake content are redefining the boundaries between what is real and what is not, undermining trust in institutions and social cohesion.
At the next illimity Talk, Pablo Trincia, Podcaster, author & writer, together with Corrado Passera, founder and CEO of illimity, will guide us in a discussion exploring the social impact of misinformation and the phenomenon of post-truth, a context where truth is often distorted or ignored in favour of narratives that resonate more with personal beliefs or emotions than with verifiable data and concrete facts.

The road to create a new business is not always easy. The entrepreneur has to give shape to his or her intuitions and is often confronted with reality and numerous obstacles along the way. But if we look at successful entrepreneurs, is it possible to identify a lowest common denominator in their thinking or behavior?

All the critical distinctions between people and machines - such as history, a sense of aesthetics, myths and profound values - are only possible and communicable using language. Language is the tool that enables us to produce an endless number of sentences from an arsenal of a few dozen sounds, to learn how to do things we've never done before, to imagine things that nobody has thought of before, to simulate the future, to transfer information that does not exist, to foresee what might lie ahead and to create abstract notions like gods.

21 November 2019
On 21 November the first illimity talk as part of IAB Forum, the most important event in Italy dedicated to the digital sector. A debate between two serial innovators: illimity's CEO Corrado Passera and the physicist and inventor Federico Faggin. A step-by-step confrontation, not always in chronological order, between two men gifted in restarting. And raising the stakes, always.
There is something that we all have inside, that we need to develop it with curiosity and interdisciplinarity. It is called potential, because it can become a great power, allowing us to be free.
Corrado Passera

Innovation means asking yourself: what is the problem that is really close to my heart?
Luciano Floridi
Professor of Philosophy at Oxford
Robots have a single powerful brain to handle billions of different bodies in the same way. They are not aggressive, they don't fall in love and, in the end, they are all the same. By contrast, human beings are tied to biochemical changes: we get hungry, we suffer from fear and envy and we fall in love. Our brains are limited in capacity, but we are also unique, creative, unreliable, irrational, resentful and brilliant. We are human.
Roberto Cingolani
Chief Technology & Innovation Officer at Leonardo
We need a plan: the choices we make today determine how we will live in the future. To combat climate change, we must change ourselves
