Start the Future

Global Challenges and Digital Innovation

Only through an integrated international strategy and starting from the cooperation of all those involved we can begin to solve the great challenges of our time. It is with this belief that we created Start The Future - the WMF live televised event created with the aim of offering information, training and entertainment as well as a co-reasoned and shared dialogue on innovation and the future.

Our first online event, focused in particular on the health emergency and was held on April 7 2020, on the occasion of World Health Day. Start The Future, completely free and open to all with live streaming, used the Open Innovation model and connected different actors and personalities from all over the world (New York, Hong Kong, London, Barcelona, ​​Sofia ..) in order to identify and highlight support solutions for citizens, businesses, schools, healthcare facilities and government agencies in an emergency situation.

During the event, innovative startups, companies, professionals and researchers from Italy and abroad joined together to respond to the health crisis and other global challenges. The testimonials and projects were selected through a special international call, in which many companies and startups, particularly those involved in the Digital Health field, participated.
