Rossano Ercolini Wins "Green Noble Prize"

What a welcome news! To see an Italian school teacher win the Goldman Environmental Prize award, upon being inspired during a trip to San Francisco. While many Italian cities, such as Torino, recycle diligently and distinguish across a gamut of recycling categories, awareness of plastic pollution and sustainability seems still somewhat mute in Italy. I am always astonished to see how many plastic bottles people use at the beach in summer (yes they are being recycled, but reusable bottles still…See More

International Women's Day: Italian Women on the Ascent

On International Women’s Day 2013, Il Sole 24 ORE highlights Italian women who are taking charge in politics and key institutional roles. I personally believe we will live in a balanced state once such news will no longer be "news". When perhaps we will have ministers who can actually govern, be women or men, because they are qualified and capable to do so. Ditto for…See More

Provo... e vedo se parte?! Kia's new concept vehicle

Will auto manufacturers ever learn to conduct thorough, global, market research ahead of baptizing their vehicles? "Nova" was a famous Business 101 case study and now Kia announced a concept vehicle named "Provo", which is not related to the beautiful homonym town in Utah, nor to the troublesome IRA group, and which in Italian means "I try.." meaning, you are probably not sure whether to…See More

"Made in Italy" stems from Italians of all abilities

December 3 was the International Day of Persons with Disabilities (note: not "of the disabled" but "of people, with", just like there are people who are short, tall, with long hair, etc, attributes that make us who we are).

Baldassarre Forestiere: Immigrant and Sustainability Genius of the 1900s

What do you do after emigrating to a land that is hotter than you had thought?

Italian inventiveness says "Dig underground!" And so Baldassarre Forestiere, Italian immigrant from Sicily, did, when he found himself around Fresno in the early 1900s.

Today the marvelous outcome of his obstinate, 40-year work can still be observed and visited at the Underground Gardens in central…

New Technologies Reshaping the Manufacturing Future: 3D Printing

I enjoyed this article from La Stampa first of, because it prompts to embrace modern technologies and venture into the future as opposed to dwelling onto the past. But most of all, I like the reminder that technologies like 3D printing can bring…

Never stop reaching for the stars. You will catch one sooner or later and have the ride of your life. Just think about what the space men and women experienced on their first ride into zero gravity. Anything is possible and the impossible just takes a little longer.

IMHO, this is a simple and effective way to respect the new "members" that will join thin online community and a way to communicate everybody that BAIA is an open and transparent association.
