00:25Window on the markets
00:27Philosophy is under the stars
00:29Maximo Ibarra explains the link between innovation and philosophy
00:39August remains the favorite month for Italians' holidays
00:42with a record number of departures planned
00:4417.5 million, those who have planned to travel
00:481 million more than last year
00:50for a total of 19.2 million departures
00:53as it emerges from the focus on August holidays
00:55of the Italians of the Confcommerce Tourism Observatory
00:58in collaboration with SVG
01:00Italian families have allocated
01:02a total budget of 15.5 billion euros
01:05for August holidays
01:07an increase of 1.5 billion compared to 2023
01:11For the rent of an umbrella and bed
01:13you can spend this year up to 700 euros per day
01:15and from the north to the south of the peninsula
01:17lists are recorded
01:19from 3% to 5% for swimming services
01:22emerges from an investigation of the CODACONS
01:25to rent an umbrella and two beds
01:27during the weekend in a standard establishment
01:29the average cost is between 32 and 35 euros per day
01:33with strong differences on the territory
01:35in Sabaodya they serve up to 45 euros
01:37that reach 90 euros in Gallipoli
01:39and touch the 120 euros in some towns of Sardinia
01:42but if you move to the luxury beaches
01:44the expense is over 500 euros per day
01:47and can reach 700
01:50It does not stop the boom of widespread receptivity
01:53between 2014 and 2024
01:55and the active companies such as
01:57houses, vacancies, rental rooms and B&B
01:59have increased by 147%
02:01reaching 34,975 units
02:03it is calculated by the Confe Sercenti
02:05which speaks of an explosion
02:07that is transforming not only the receptive sector
02:09but also our cities
02:11the phenomenon is particularly strong
02:13in the municipalities with more than 250,000 inhabitants
02:15where the companies of widespread receptivity
02:17pass in 10 years
02:19from 2,823 to 8,579
02:22with an increase of 204%
02:25but the phenomenon does not spare any municipalities
02:27neither small nor very small
02:29for Italian families
02:31the presence of grandmothers is worth more than a financial year
02:33as emerged from a direct analysis
02:35on senior federal data
02:37the economic aid that about 12 million grandmothers
02:39provide to daughters and grandchildren
02:41has been estimated at over 38 billion euros
02:44more than half the value
02:46of the last economic maneuver
02:48with a determined impact on welfare
02:50according to the investigation
02:52in more than one family out of three
02:54it is the elderly who save the domestic balance
02:56mainly to take care of the children
02:58and accompany them in all school activities
03:00and extra school activities
03:02when the parents worked
03:06in the wallets of the Italians
03:08interviewed for the 2024 edition
03:10of the report on the investment choices
03:12of Italian families of CONSOB
03:14there is more and more space
03:16for cryptocurrencies and sustainable investments
03:18from what emerges from the investigation
03:20the Italians mainly have deposit certificates
03:22and good postage stamps
03:24followed by state titles
03:26municipal funds of investment
03:28and obligations
03:30a rather traditional picture
03:32but the declared presence of cryptoassets
03:34grows significantly
03:36between 2022 and 2024
03:38the percentage of interviewees
03:40who declare to have cryptocurrencies
03:42in their portfolio
03:44is more than doubled
03:46and goes from 8% to 18%
03:48a choice that this time
03:50seems more a fashion
03:52than a conscious decision
03:54since it is not always associated
03:56with a real knowledge
03:58of the characteristics
04:00of this type of digital asset
04:02sustainable investments also grow
04:04present in 2024
04:06in the savings of 20%
04:08of interviewees
04:10there are more factors
04:1242% does not perceive them
04:14as more profitable
04:1638% does not associate them
04:18at lower costs
04:20and 36% does not consider them
04:22less risky
04:24among other deterrents
04:26there are investors who
04:28believe that sustainable finance
04:30pays too much
04:3241%
04:34or that frame it
04:36as a 39% marketing phenomenon
04:38within a range of possibilities
04:40in particular
04:4267% of interviewees
04:44takes information from the web
04:46in second place television 43%
04:48then with 36% social media
04:50at equal level with sites
04:52or app of financial intermediaries
04:54printed paper and online newspapers
04:56are used by 34%
04:58percentage that drops to 33%
05:00for institutional sites
05:02the digital era therefore enters
05:04in full title in the financial choices
05:06social media as a source of information
05:08have more influence on young people
05:10between 18 and 34 years
05:1258% on women 42%
05:14against 34% of men
05:16on family members who manage
05:18amounts less than 50,000 euros
05:20and on those who have a low level of
05:22financial education
05:24social media have a relevance
05:26especially in the first phase of investment
05:28when information is collected to orient
05:30when it comes to the decision
05:32on how to invest your money
05:34the percentage of interviewees
05:36that is guided by the indications
05:38found on social media
05:40drops to 3%
05:44How innovation
05:46and new technologies
05:48can feed and support
05:50the desire to know
05:52and how artificial intelligence
05:54can help to improve the world
05:56are these central themes of the
05:58intervention with which
06:00Maximo Ibarra,
06:02CEO of the Transformation Company
06:04leader in Italy,
06:06closed in Rome
06:08the event promoted by
06:10Rome Capital during the evening
06:12entitled Minds
06:14at the Palatine Stadium in Rome
06:16For Ibarra, technology and human thought
06:18are closely connected
06:20With technology and AI
06:22we are going to influence
06:24the quality of people's lives
06:26we will influence their well-being
06:28we will influence the wealth
06:30that they will produce
06:32and all these aspects have
06:34important implications
06:36on the centrality of man
06:38very often we talk about
06:40artificial intelligence as a substitute
06:42of the individual
06:44in reality it is not like that
06:46it is an amplification of its capabilities
06:48an amplification of the way of work
06:50that must be more and more collaborative
06:52between the human being and the machine
06:54In this phase of rapid technological transformation
06:56the human factor is essential
06:58it will never be able to replace the human being
07:00but it will tend to amplify
07:02its knowledge and its capabilities
07:04when we talk about substitution
07:06we will rather talk about people
07:08who use artificial intelligence
07:10who will replace individuals who will not use
07:12artificial intelligence
07:14this on the one hand
07:16and on the other this collaboration
07:18between individuals and machines
07:20that will lead to an incredible
07:22volume of discovery
07:24of innovation
07:26and collaboration
07:28we talk about co-pilot
07:30which is not just a software
07:32but the ability to do things together
07:34delegating to the machines
07:36often the most repetitive activities
07:38or those that can be automated
07:40multiple concrete benefits
07:42that artificial intelligence will bring
07:44in our lives
07:46also taking into account aspects
07:48not to be underestimated
07:50such as regulation, regulations
07:52and limitations to be imposed on technology
07:54from the point of view of how to deal with emergencies
07:56that can be natural calamities
07:58rather than other emergencies
08:00such as climate change
08:02or also in the field of education
08:04or rather than in the field of health
08:06so the ability or the possibility
08:08to be able to discover therapies
08:10that until recently it was impossible
08:12to find as a solution
08:14all these changes
08:16will come in a very short time horizon
08:18and will clearly give
08:20a gigantic boost
08:22to our well-being
08:24in general
08:52Earth Overshoot Day 2024
08:54from the 1st of August
08:56Humanity in debt with the planet
09:00Circular Economy and Consumption
09:02Italians always more attentive
09:04to sustainability
09:08Humanity in ecological debt
09:10from the 1st of August
09:12date of Earth Overshoot Day 2024
09:14that is the day when the demand
09:16of natural resources by man
09:18exceeds the capacity of the Earth
09:20to regenerate them within 12 months
09:22to calculate every year
09:24the Global Overshoot Day
09:26and the Global Footprint Network
09:28Earth Overshoot Day
09:30that falls on the 1st of August
09:32indicates that currently humanity
09:34is using nature 1.7 times
09:36faster than the ecosystems
09:38of our planet
09:40can regenerate
09:42to determine the date of the Earth Overshoot Day
09:44the Global Footprint Network
09:46compares
09:48on the basis of the most recent data
09:50the annual biocapacity of the Earth
09:52that corresponds to the terrestrial
09:54and marine areas
09:56biologically productive
09:58with the ecological footprint of humanity
10:00that measures the demand of resources
10:02for the whole year
10:04from food products to space
10:06for urban infrastructures
10:08the date is announced every year
10:10on June 5 in the World Environment Day
10:14Italians attentive to guide
10:16their daily consumption
10:18towards sustainability
10:20according to an investigation conducted by EURES
10:2278.9% of families
10:24believe that the themes related
10:26to environmental sustainability
10:28that is climate change, pollution
10:30reduction of natural resources
10:32represent a real emergency
10:34for the planet
10:36so the attention to sustainability
10:38and circular economy
10:40represent a widespread cultural trait
10:42among Italian families
10:4478.9% of cases claim
10:46to discuss and compare
10:48on such issues
10:50the investigation has analyzed
10:52five areas
10:54waste, mobility, food waste, packaging
10:56and green finance
10:58on the issue of food waste
11:00and waste transfer
11:02there are conscious and attentive behaviors
11:04that come
11:06almost to solve
11:08the problem entirely
11:10but there is a lack of infrastructure
11:12services
11:14adequate policies are missing
11:16for example in the field of
11:18sustainable mobility
11:20there are some objective impediments
11:22that can go from
11:24the lack of
11:26cycle paths
11:28but also the cost
11:30that families have to support
11:32for example to adapt
11:34their own vehicle park
11:36so I would say that there is a great
11:38attention, the culture is moving forward
11:40but there are still investments
11:42and answers
11:44from the point of view
11:46of local and central policy
11:48that still have to be carried out
11:50the investigation was conducted
11:52by ADOC, Cittadinanza Attiva,
11:54Feder Consumatori, Udicon
11:56and Unione Nazionale Consumatori
11:58it is certainly good news
12:00that Italians are aware
12:02of the importance of their behavior
12:04because the citizen's contribution
12:06on the issues of sustainability
12:08would certainly
12:10require a greater contribution
12:12from the industry
12:14especially to the packaging
12:16that could be more intelligent
12:18too often citizens denounce
12:20excessive packaging
12:22the so-called over-packaging
12:24and the shrink-flation phenomenon
12:26that is the reduction of the content
12:28inside packages that instead
12:30remain of the original dimensions
12:32in this case not only the purchasing power
12:34of consumers is affected
12:36but also the environment
12:38only by contributing each one
12:40for their part
12:42that you can really change society
12:44and therefore also the approach
12:46towards sustainability and environmental attention
12:48for example
12:50in terms of sustainable finance
12:52we have only a quarter
12:54of the interviewees
12:56who declare themselves informed
12:58while another quarter
13:00says
13:02they know absolutely nothing
13:04and more than half of the interviewees
13:06consider it useful
13:08to have more information
13:10to have financial education training
13:12to see and observe
13:14to benefit from informative
13:16and promotional campaigns
13:18that are useful
13:20to improve the skills
13:22for informed and aware
13:24purchases also in this area
