Federico Amicucci – Innovation & Digital Business Director
As Innovation & Digital Business Director, Federico Amicucci leads the internationalisation work across Skilla, and is responsible for digital competencies solutions. Federico has the advantage of being a millennial who therefore fully grasps the preferences and opportunities of the now generation, at the same time as having already developed a historic perspective in the field of distance learning, and seen the market and methodologies evolve, thanks to involvement in his father’s activities in the area from a very young age, when learning was disseminated via VHS and floppy discs! A strong entrepreneurial drive, as much due his personal predisposition as to his genes, propelled Federico to train over 1500 people in computer use and the internet via the Internet Saloon, to establish the Netwill project, focused on Reverse Mentoring for organisations, and then lead digital marketing as a founding partner in apropositodime.com. In Skilla, he has managed and delivered over 100 eLearning projects for a wide range of national and multinational organisations, and created the pioneering app The Digital Journey, the first lifelong learning and microlearning solution in digital competencies, setting the course for many of Skilla’s innovations. For Federico, Digital Learning is therefore not only a passion and a family affair, but also a liberator. Working on the development of your skills and knowledge is an effective way of widening the possibilities open to you, so for Federico, working in Skilla means being able to help liberate people and organisations to expand their choices. It is also a way of extending the impact of learning on a global basis, and this, it should be said, is part of a proud Italian tradition in the field of educational development. Federico reminds us that while some knowledge becomes obsolete, no-one can rob us of the competencies we cultivate which we carry with us throughout life.
