INTRODUCTION TO MMF

In the last twenty years, digital technologies have given rise to a real revolution that is no less dramatic than the one of the early 1900s when electricity replaced steam engines. However, this progressive evolution towards digitalization has undergone a strong acceleration in recent times, extended to every single aspect of human and did not spare the business realm that has been drastically reshaped by the global digitalization trend.
