Dear All,

my name is Daniele, I’m 34 and I’m anelectrical engineer. Actually I’m working in Italy in operations department of an international company, and a part of my job is to find if there are any“lack” in each kind of operations process, analyse them and modify the workflow in order to optimize and to improve the process too.

With my friend Davide (he is working inUK, different company but same department), every week we try to find an intelligence solution to improve human life, something to help our daily life,something for livability of oldages. Related to this continuous input wethought an idea for a “smart city”, but unfortunately we have only the idea(even if we would like to develop it).

We thought to old ages 2.0.In 2020 there’ll be old ages capable to use smartphone and tablet, and me andmy friend Davide have thought to develop an APP for future old ages. The ideais very simple, and it will create an helpful network between two generations. The main purpose is to connect old ages with youngers (geo-localized) in order to ask them to buy something, or to pay invoices, or carry out little but daily commissions. We would like to create an APP to link the old ages, that couldn’t go out for several reasons, and youngers, the most closely youngers available. The payment will be anticipate by younger, and after the feedback (everythingis into the bag, for example), the old age unlock the reimbursement.

We would like to explain better our idea, and obviously we would like to become partner of this project. We would like to create a Start-Up related to this topic!

Best Regards

Daniele Sani
