The Project
Venice is a traditionally open city, which has been influenced by many
populations and civilizations: it is a city that never stops and, thanks to what the
Public Authority did and to the frequent visitors of the net about this area, it can
be considered as the first city that got aware of the creation of the digital
citizens’ new status. The citizens do not want to be passive subjects but want
to play an active part in the society.

Digital Technology has revolutionized Italians’ way to get informed. The use of
Internet and satellite tv is growing more and more. Being well informed about
public interest matters means to play and active part in the life of a community.
This is what it means to be a citizen. Today, the connection between Internet
and information (and politics) awakens interest and attention more than it did in
the past.

We have decided to let Venice become a great laboratory for innovation, and to
give the people of the net the opportunity to find their ideal place. “The net is a
real revolution: I think that the evolution of the broadband can be compared to
the effects of the steam revolution in the nineteenth century”, says Michele
Vianello, one of the promoters of the event and manager of the Vega
Technological Parc, “and the Arsenale, wired with optical fibres for the people of
the net, is the ideal place where to start new trips: a great chance to inaugurate
a new world”.

This is the reason why Venice, thanks to its own cosmopolitan mentality, may
become famous for innovation.

The Location
The event about digital innovation, organized with the Municipality of Venice,
takes place in the very first factory of the world, the “Tese” of the Arsenale,
the most fascinatine place of the city. The places that saw the golden age of
the Serenissima now represent the new workshop for innovation: from pitch
to the net, from the galleys to the web, the Arsenale represents again a new
place dedicated to “navigation”: 300 sm divided into three areas with stalls,
community areas, convention rooms and clusters. The whole area of the
Arsenale is covered by a wifi net provided by the Municipality of Venice which,
from the 3rd July 2009, is the first digital city in Italy.

The City Background
Portfolio VeneziaCamp 2010 - Arsenale in Venice, 1st-4th July 2010 4
As the first edition, VeneziaCamp 2010 will develope six different themes, with a single leitmotif given by the innovative vision of the net, the so called 2.0 web.
Today Internet is a well-established and universally recognized tool, but the approach to the “net” represents a real challenge for Economy, Society, Civil Service,
Marketing and Tourism in the future. And if social networks represent the basis for everyday life for all those who surf the net habitually, all the people who work
with those networks are already thinking about Innovation Technology, not just Information Technology.

The BarCamp will take place on the 3rd July: for further information see the website http://barcamp.org/veneziacamp2010

The Events
Innovation and digital citizenship, a place where the “people of
the net” can meet: during these three days, a lot of conventions
have taken place here, meeting and seminars that illustrated e-
democracy world best practice, PA communication strategies,
shared vision in order to promote the modernization of digital PA.

Playful moments could not be missing just to discover Venice


with the digital WhaiWhai. The “QR-Code tagged whole roasted
pig” has represented a very important moment in the twinning
with the region of Abruzzo characterized by innovation after the
16 last earthquake. 2

The Speeches
A great event featuring some of the most active Italian bloggers
together with journalists such as Luca De Biase, edtor of
Nova24, and web marketing experts such as David Weinberger,
co-author of the Cluetrain Manifesto, who gave a speech about
Internet and Wikipedia evolution and their future expectations on
the last day of VeneziaCamp.

There has also been an “institutional” moment, when Marc


Charron, TripAdvisor Europe Managing Director, one of the
12 biggest travel communities, gave the Mayor of Venice Massimo 5
Cacciari the prize “Traveller friendly City”. This prize gives Venice
credit for being the first Italian internet tourist - friendly city.

Even Digital Media Metadistrict firms, all the politics who ride
social media, creative writers, the followers of the Digital Ethics
Paper and the protagonists of the 40xVenezia and civil service
net, innovators who are ready to spread the 2.0 Managing
Manifesto.

Children as well took part in a special contest suggested by


VeneziaCamp. Carlo Massarini presented the Next City Life:
“Venice 2020: imaging living in my city”.

The BarCamp
The day of Saturday focused on the traditional BarCamp, which is an event
dedicated to the “net dwellers”.

The BarCamp can be considered as a un-lecture created by the


contributors. It arises from people’s wish to share and learn in a
free open space: there is no audience and everyone can take part in the
event presenting a project, talking about ideas, debating or helping
4 organizers.

That was not a regular lecture with a specific theme and an outline of
events and topics, but a place where people can express and share
their thoughts and their knowledge.

Anyone can “teach”, suggest a topic or talk to people, aiming to promote


free thinking, curiosity, the popularization of all the themes linked to the
Web. There is a track, in our case it was the “digital culture”, and spaces
available to be used to propose a topic and discuss it.

The BarCamp hosted more than 200 users previously logged through the
wiki (http://barcamp.org/veneziacamp2009 )
