Someone is starting something in the Mediterranean

According to Maya, the PR woman. But "maya" means illusion. 'I think we should be careful, boss.' Yes, Voice.

Matera, Italy - March 1st 2019: New European platform, Startup Europe Mediterranean (SEMED) launched today in Matera, the 2019 European Capital of Culture. Part of the European Commission's Startup Europe initiative, the SEMED platform is the brainchild of Italy's highest valued start-up, FacilityLive.

Fair enough.

SEMED will connect people, businesses and innovation ecosystems across the Mediterranean basin, including: startups, investors, companies, incubators, universities, research centres and representatives of institutions and politicians. Users will be able to easily organize meetings, exchanging information, ideas and creating partnerships.

Nice one!

Yeah, uh, I said "someone". Obviously, lots of people are involved. 'Gianpiero seems to be the main man though, boss.' Who?! 'Gianpiero Lotito. Look -'

Gianpiero Lotito, CEO and founder of FacilityLive comments: "A project like Startup Europe Mediterranean is an important innovation in the creation of ecosystems in Europe, because it is based on a digital platform that will evolve the classic exchange programs that have always characterized the previous ecosystems. We are proud that the choice fell on our platform that wants to be strongly European and Italian."

Oh, him. Well, yeah, he's the chief executive.

...

Anything else? I'm not in the mood. I don't feel like it. I just don't feel like it.

I did write something else, but I deleted it.

Now it's this, just this, I'm afraid.

Never mind.
