An exclusive interview with Sig. Paolo Vannuzzi, CEO and Co-founder of Noovle,
the first Google Cloud Premier Partner in Europe, opening of its headquarters
in Malta, and who will be one of the main keynote speakers from a rich list of
experts, during the Noovle Summit, dedicated to Google Cloud technologies, on
Friday, 19 October 2018, at the Castello dei Baroni in Wardija, organised by MBR
Publications Ltd.
MBR: Can you please tell us a bit about Noovle and also your
role within the organisation?
PV: Despite being an experienced and well established company
on the market, I would define Noovle, as a startup in the DNA.
We always have the spirit of innovation, dynamism and a crazy
enthusiasm to carry on the activities. I think these are aspects that
are highly appreciated by the market, which, compared to traditional
models, needs "disruptive" companies to support companies in
digital transformation, where the approach to the problem must be
new and different. I am Co-founder and CEO of Noovle, which is
an Italian strategic consulting and systems integration company
specializing in ICT (Information and Communication Technologies)
and Cloud.
MBR: What has led to the strength of the Noovle brand?
PV: We are historically the recommended partner of Google Cloud
in Italy and with a primary role also in Europe. Surely the synergistic
work with the vendor has helped us to establish ourselves in the
market, but the most fundamental aspects I think are the strategic
and business vision, the skills, as well as the serious and professional
approach to the market. The satisfaction of our customers is the main
objective and we are very happy with the results achieved so far.
MBR: What can you tell us about the Cloud technologies and
platforms your offer, and how do help increase productivity and
efficiency.
PV: The cloud model allows companies and public administrations to
take a platform approach that involves the creation of integrated and
highly efficient systems, while at the same time reducing complexity
and costs.
To achieve efficiency, it is necessary to move from a concept
of individual productivity to one of collaborative and extended
productivity, overcoming physical boundaries and allowing to interact
in an easy way at any time and with any information.
Google, for example, provides the G Suite collaboration platform
which, supported by appropriate change management interventions
within companies and organizations, allowing for impressive
efficiency and productivity gains, changing the way people work and
the interaction between people, as well as between people and data.
The challenge for the enhancement of information assets, the main
source of value for each organization, passes through the ability
to extract value from the immense amount of information coming
from heterogeneous sources and systems, processing data and

Noovle has developed NEDiX (Noovle Enterprise DX), an advanced
technological platform able to accompany companies in the process
of digitizing processes and identifying highly innovative business
models.

MBR: How do you define the brand positioning for Noovle and
how critical is it to communicate the brand purpose internally
to ensure that Noovle’s employees are engaged in this effort?
PV: People are the key to success for us. The sharing of strategies
and objectives, as well as participation in the results, becomes an
important element for involving and keeping our employees and
employees "committed". The company has grown very rapidly, has
a very low average age and is widespread on the Italian national
territory, with important branches abroad. Firstly, to keep the sense
of belonging high we make a lot of use of new technologies, from the
social / cloud intranet where there is a shared push of all activities,
projects, results, initiatives, to video conferencing systems to create
moments of virtual aggregation, up to the training, both online and
in presence for a technological but also managerial and personal
growth.
The work environment is also important. We have tried to take better
care of the welcome and comfort at work, with attention to details that
can make life in the office more pleasant.
MBR: What have been the keys to Noovle’s consistent strength
and leadership and how do you define the Noovle difference?
PV: Noovle was born in the cloud, when still nobody, or very few,
knew this word and its value. The cloud is in our organizational
model, in our DNA, and today we are able to express a difference in
