Thank you @jdcivicscience and the team at @CivicScience for allowing me to share my experience as a civil servant, trying to help government services to become more efficient (I admit, the bar is low...)

.@wireditalia mi ha chiesto di aprire il numero sulle startup europee. La creazione di un sistema imprenditoriale di successo dipende da diversi fattori. Il circolo virtuoso generato dal venture capital aiuta, ma alla base ci sono le “unreasonable people”

Delivering goods is essential to our lives but it's still one of the most inefficient and polluting activities in a country. And it's still mostly analog. @convoyteam is changing that. Still a long way to go but the impact is visible. Thank you @daniellewis.
Today we announced a $260M raise for Convoy! I was asked, is this because of the truck driver shortage? This is a common question. My answer is no, I do not believe we have a shortage of truck drivers. We're short in other areas. Here goes... 1/

“That honour goes to Italy. Not for the prowess of its footballers, who won Europe’s big trophy, nor its pop stars, who won the Eurovision song contest, but for its politics.”
Leadership matters!
The winner we chose acquired a competent, respected prime minister in 2021. It has a high covid vaccination rate and its economy is recovering more speedily than those of its neighbours econ.st/3IYvoKa

At last! Speaking in person about Government Digital Transformation as a competitive advantage for Europe. Great conversation with Paul-Bernhard Kallen (@burda_news) at #DLDSummer@DLDConference in Munich.
