A inizio anno è partita a Brescia un'interessante sperimentazione che mette insieme le potenzialità della mobilità in sharing a quelle della guida autonoma. Si tratta del progetto promosso da A2A e dal Politecnico di Milano, nell’ambito del programma di ricerca del MOST (Centro Nazionale per la Mobilità Sostenibile), che mira a ridurre traffico e inquinamento, contribuendo alla decarbonizzazione delle aree urbane. La sperimentazione potrebbe anche dare una spinta all'aggiornamento della normativa europea sulla guida autonoma, in modo che l'Europa possa porsi al passo con gli Usa e la Cina - sottolinea Renato Mazzoncini, Amministratore delegato di A2A.Dopo una chiusura 2024 all'insegna della crescita, Renault conferma la sua posizione di rilievo nel mercato italiano. Dopo il lancio dell'attesissima Renault 5 elettrica, recentemente eletta Car of the Year insieme all'Alpine A290, il brand punta anche sulla nuova Renault 4 eTech che reinterpreta un grande classico del marchio. L'impegno di Renault sul fronte elettrico si spinge anche oltre il prodotto, come confermato dalla partnership con Autostrade per l'Italia mirata alla creazione di stazioni di ricarica veloce fuori dalla rete autostradale - spiega Raffaele Fusilli, Amministratore Delegato di Renault Italia.

Paul & Dan discuss Werewolf and Mafia-style games -- party-style games with secret roles assigned, including a hidden evil faction, and a group of mostly-innocent civilians trying to survive and uncover the adversaries. What different variants of this game work the best? What psychological lessons can we take away? And what elements can be worked into your D&D and other role-playing games? Mafia, also known as Werewolf, is a Russian social deduction game created by Dimitry Davidoff in 1986. The game models a conflict between two groups: an informed minority (the mafiosi or the werewolves) and an uninformed majority (the villagers). At the start of the game, each player is secretly assigned a role affiliated with one of these teams. The game has two alternating phases: first, a night-phase, during which those with night-killing-powers may covertly kill other players, and second, a day-phase, in which all surviving players debate and vote to eliminate a suspect. The game continues until a faction achieves its win-condition; for the village, this usually means eliminating the evil minority, while for the minority, this usually means reaching numerical parity with the village and eliminating any rival evil groups. Andrew Plotkin gave the rules a werewolf theme in 1997, arguing that the mafia had less cultural resonance, and that the werewolf concept fit the idea of a hidden enemy who looked normal during the daytime. Mafia and a variant called Thing have been played at science fiction writers' workshops since 1998, and have become an integral part of the annual Clarion and Viable Paradise workshops. The Werewolf variant of Mafia became widespread at major tech events, including the Game Developers Conference, ETech, Foo Camps, and South By Southwest. In 1998 the Kaliningrad Higher school of the Internal Affairs Ministry published the methodical textbook Nonverbal communications. Developing role-playing games 'Mafia' and 'Murderer' for a course on Visual psychodiagnostics, to teach reading body language and nonverbal signals. In September 1998 Mafia was introduced to the Graduate College at Princeton University, where a number of variants were developed. The werewolf theme was also incorporated in the French adaption of Mafia, The Werewolves of Millers Hollow. Mafia is one of the 50 most historically and culturally significant tabletop games since 1800 according to about.com.

For this episode of the eTech podcast Ryan Maughan speaks to Sam Cockerill, CEO of Libertine PLC. Libertine are a UK based developer of linear generators, this is an interesting technology utilising a free piston engine and a linear electrical machine to create an engine with an infinitely variable stroke and compression ratio.Libertine are hoping to develop this technology for industrial power generation applications using bio-fuels and synthetic fuels. Whilst this is a combustion engine, it does provide very efficient power conversion and also minimal emissions of harmful pollutants as the combustion process can be controlled in a way that has never been possible before, due to the active linear generator that gives effectively an adjustable engine stroke, compression ratio and piston velocity to very precisely control the combustion process.Ryan and Sam discuss the linear generator technology and Libertine's journey from a startup to an AIM listed business.Sam Cockerill LinkedIn profile: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sam-cockerill-7203982/Libertine corporate website: https://www.libertine.co.uk/Ryan Maughan LinkedIn profile – https://www.linkedin.com/in/ryan-maughan-a2893610/eTech website – https://www.etech49.comFollow eTech49 on social media: https://www.linkedin.com/company/etech49-limited

For this episode of the eTech podcast Ryan speaks to Philip Johnston, CEO of Trackwise PLC. Trackwise is a specialist UK based manufacturer of printed circuit boards. Printed circuit boards are a key component in all electronic equipment but it is a technology that has often been overlooked or undervalued. Much of the UK's PCB manufacturing has moved offshore however Trackwise has kept UK based manufacturing by innovating new products and manufacturing technology. First of all they developed large format PCB manufacturing processes and this found them success in markets such as antenna arrays for communications systems.They then developed large format flexible circuit manufacturing, and by flexible they mean it can bend and flex rather than quickly adapt to a change!So these large flexible circuits are finding more applications replacing wiring harnesses in aerospace and automotive. More recently Phillip and his team have been working with a key customer to improve battery module design by implementing flex circuits to replace the internal harness in the battery pack which interconnects the cells and BMS.To find out more listen to this great episode!Trackwise corporate website - https://www.trackwise.co.uk/Philip Johnston LinkedIn profile -https://www.linkedin.com/in/philip-johnston-66a5471/Ryan Maughan LinkedIn profile – https://www.linkedin.com/in/ryan-maughan-a2893610/eTech website – https://www.etech49.comFollow eTech49 on social media:LinkedIn – https://www.linkedin.com/company/etech49-limitedTwitter – https://twitter.com/acexryan

Because customer centricity involves elevating the entire journey, you cannot focus solely on a particular channel or function. You need to consider the entire, end-to-end experience. Certain channels do, however, play a particularly vital role in capturing data about the customer experience. Chat is one of them, and in this exclusive podcast, Jim Iyoob of ETech and Matt Cecil of Verizon reveal how they leverage the available insights to better understand customers, better empower agents, and better elevate the entire customer journey. The conversation closes with tips on how to communicate the findings to "non-call center" stakeholders in the business.

In this two-part episode from CCW Nashville, we welcome Kelley Kurtzman, Jim Iyoob and Roach. First, Kurtzman and Iyoob discuss the opportunities and benefits of predictive analytics. Roach then shares insights into Johnston & Murphy's empowering contact center culture.

This week's guests do not represent identical organizations.  They do, however, share a passion for the customer experience -- and the role people play in the process. Jim Iyoob of ETech, our first guest, reveals how to meet the heightened expectations of today's customers.  What do they really want? How can an organization pair the right people with the right technology to meet those demands -- and deliver a customer experience that matters? Thomsen, a finalist at the CCW Excellence Awards, discusses his efforts to cultivate a customer-centric culture.  We may be in the digital age, but Sign-Zone remains focused on the personal touch. Thomsen reveals how his organization trains, coaches and incentivizes agents to prioritize connections.

For as long as I’ve known him, Brady Forrest has been at the very epicenter of whatever the West Coast alpha geeks think is going to be the next big thing. I met him around 2008 when he was running the brilliant ETech conference for O’Reilly Media - which incidentally, was one of the first public tech talks that I ever gave. Since then he cofounded Ignite, a talk series which has been held thousands of times around the world - as well as Highway1, a hardware accelerator which has helped launch over 58 hardware startups.
