Rome Digital Summit

Rome Digital Summit: The Capital as a pioneer of digital innovation

The Rome Digital Summit is the annual conference focusing on the digital transformation of Rome and the Metropolitan City of Rome Capital. Promoted by The Innovation Group in collaboration with Roma Capitale and the Metropolitan City, the event gathers public administrators, civil service executives, top managers, businesses, universities, and research centers for a full day to discuss the Capital's digital strategies.

Hosted in the prestigious «Giorgio Fregosi» Council Chamber of Palazzo Valentini, in the heart of Rome's historic center, the summit is a key stop on the broader Digital Territorial Summit, a program through which The Innovation Group supports the technological innovation of Italian territories and the digitalization of services for citizens.

Sessions and themes

Each edition is organized into plenary sessions and round tables dedicated to the pillars of regional growth. The topics driving the discussion include:

• Artificial intelligence, research, and innovation as drivers of economic development and public administration efficiency;
• Transport, sustainable mobility, and urban regeneration, for a more livable and connected Capital;
• Tourism and digital culture, leveraging new technologies to enhance heritage;
• Digital infrastructure and public-private collaboration to support the competitiveness of the economic system.

The day alternates between keynotes, presentations from partner companies, and operational discussions, offering valuable networking opportunities to build synergies among the various actors in the innovation ecosystem.

An event for the Public Administration

The audience of the Rome Digital Summit consists of PA executives and officials, CIOs, IT Managers, Innovation Managers, digital transformation experts, and representatives from the business and research sectors. It is the ideal occasion to take stock of ongoing projects—from the PNRR to investments in digital infrastructure—and to share best practices for the benefit of Roman citizens.

Palazzo Valentini, the summit venue

The choice of Palazzo Valentini, the seat of the Metropolitan City of Rome Capital on Via IV Novembre, is no coincidence: the historic building, which houses the famous Domus Romane, bridges memory and the future, serving as the perfect symbol of a city that looks toward innovation without forgetting its millennial legacy. The Rome Digital Summit thus confirms the role of Rome, in the Lazio region, as a laboratory for digital policies for the entire Italian Public Administration.
