Gabriele Ruffatti discusses openness and digital innovation in a presentation with three main sections. Openness is seen as an engine for digital innovation, driven by complexity, dynamism and a need for trust. Open source is presented as a development model that enables collaboration, transparency and new commercial models. The role of data, people and managers who embrace innovation are key factors for digital transformation.
