I got a nice and enthralling story I want to share with you today.<\/span><\/p>\n

My father began working at an early age; he helped his father producing handcrafted wooden frames.<\/span><\/p>\n

As of today, we shall consider them works of art: all custom made, handcrafted one by one pieces. Each frame differed from all the others.\u00a0<\/span>A painstaking work, highly artisan, though long and complex; they couldn\u2019t be mass-produced frames, and their production was necessarily limited.<\/span><\/p>\n

My father was dissatisfied with this. He wanted to take action for a more efficient and streamlined process, for the purpose of producing more frames, supplying more customers and cost cutting.<\/span><\/p>\n

The only word I can imagine for that kind of situation is \u201cinnovation\u201d. Take a deep-rooted process and improve it, make it more efficient, well performing, smart.<\/span><\/p>\n

Innovation: The engine that motivated and drove my father since the beginning.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Today, after all these years, sacrifices, tireless hard work, the engine that drives SAPA is just the same. And I never expected that, in only one year, we achieved such a broad consensus in this regard. <\/span><\/p>\n

First our win at the <\/span>SPE Automotive TPO Conference in Detroit<\/b>, for being one of the top five patents, <\/span>with the likes of Ford.<\/b><\/p>\n

Then today, called on to lecture at the German-Italian Innovation Conference, at the Italian Embassy in Berlin, together with Bosh, Lamborghini and BASF. A great opportunity to talk about how Smart Manufacturing and Industry 4.0 principles are applied in SAPA.<\/span><\/p>\n

It\u2019s been a long time since my grandfather\u2019s workshop existence, switching to my father\u2019s specialization in automotive plastic moulding, and, in a week, I will talk about innovation, the same innovation I breathe since I was born. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The German-Italian Innovation Conference theme is <\/span>\u201cInvesting in Italian Innovation. Digital solutions and the challenge of Industry 4.0\u201d<\/span><\/i>. The event has been organized by ITKAM (The Italian Chamber of Commerce for Germany) in collaboration with the Italian Embassy in Berlin and ICE Agency, on November 29<\/span>th<\/span>. <\/span><\/p>\n

A valuable conference, bringing together the most important Italian and German Industries, not just in the field of automotive, but all crucial manufacturing sectors: fashion, design, food, web and digital, agro-food and technology. <\/span><\/p>\n

What will I talk about in detail?<\/span><\/p>\n

I promise you, I will share the full report in future articles. However, in the meantime, I would like to give you a sneak peek. <\/span><\/p>\n

I\u2019ve been asked to deliver a lecture about Smart Manufacturing and Industry 4.0. Indeed, I will bring SAPA\u2019s experience, focusing on the three deciding factors that allowed us in these years to develop an increasing specialization.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"SAPA<\/a><\/p>\n

An internal R&D department is of paramount importance to get clues for faster and cost-effectively improving performance of car components.<\/span><\/p>\n

We have developed, tested and patented these solutions (our patent figures double year on year) so that the processes are increasingly efficient, removing the car maker\u2019s concerns: higher quality components, lower costs and rapidity, including at critical times, thanks to a short decision-making \u00a0chain.<\/span><\/p>\n

In my speech in Berlin, I will definitely address part of these aspects.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"SAPA<\/a><\/p>\n

I will also cover a few fundamental issues related to the automotive future, and which of them we are working on every day in SAPA.<\/span><\/p>\n

This is about Innovation as well.<\/span><\/p>\n

See you when I get back from Berlin, after attending the German-Italian Innovation Conference, for sharing my overall impressions and my full speech.<\/span><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
