On September 28, Ermanno Bonifazi, Founder and CEO of Avantune, will be among the speakers at “Digitalizzazione 2026,” the event organized by la Repubblica – Affari & Finanza to explore the role of emerging technologies in the development of Italian businesses and the relationship between digital transformation and competitiveness.

The event will begin at 9:00 a.m. at Palazzo Emilio Turati in Milan, bringing together businesses, institutions, and experts to discuss the main challenges associated with technological advancement.
“From Digital Transformation to the Agentic Enterprise: How Italian Mid-Sized Companies Can Compete” is the theme of the 2026 edition, which will address key topics shaping the future of the business landscape: artificial intelligence adoption, data utilization, process innovation, and cybersecurity.
During the event, Ermanno Bonifazi will share the experience gained at Avantune in developing software capable of integrating applications, data, and business processes into a single digital ecosystem.
“Competitive advantage no longer comes from owning technology. It comes from knowing how to put it to work within your business processes,” says Ermanno Bonifazi.
This perspective reflects the company’s vision: making artificial intelligence a practical and integrated part of the organization, capable of working alongside people, improving the quality of decision-making, and reducing operational complexity.
Avantune’s participation in “Digitalizzazione 2026” represents an important opportunity to engage with businesses, institutions, and the research community at one of Italy’s leading events dedicated to the country’s digital evolution.
The event is open to the public upon registration and will also be streamed live on Repubblica.it.
