OurTeam

We believe in the dialogue between humanistic and technical-scientific culture. We are communicators, journalists, economists, engineers and designers.

Italian Network

The process of building your company's identity and visibility can be fast-tracked with our network.

We are a communications agency, but we are also publishers. We founded a specialized website, Vaielettrico.it, led by a team of industry journalists who represent a reference point on sustainable mobility in Italy. We believe in the opportunity to lead the sustainable transition by supporting together with JOIN Group those who want to undertake a process of transformation into a benefit company or B-Corp. To support clients in Brand Identity development processes we have developed a collaboration with the design studio Vertigo. To ensure the highest quality even in the most complex digital projects, our Digital Media division is supported by the multidisciplinary team of Evolution People.

The Smartitaly ecosystem can also count on a solid presence in the social sphere, nurturing and monitoring more than 200 communities sensitive to sustainability issues followed by 2 million people.

International Network

The success of a brand or company in new markets is based on expertise, but above all on sensitivity in understanding and valuing local differences and dynamics as well as their role in the global context.

Therefore, we created a partnership with digital agency Bolt PR American consulting firm Penati and Partners. With the latter, in particular, the goal is to create a bridge between the two countries, facilitating market entry of Italian and European companies into the US.

But we have also built partnerships in France (Les Sémaphores Associés), Germany (IsarGold) and China (Xinhua News Agency), so as to help companies globally.
