Fincons and Quintetto partnering for technology and business cooperation.

Quintetto announces the latest partnership with Fincons, to provide system integration and business cooperation for Quintetto’s solutions, granting maintenance and services to ensure the uttermost quality.

Together, Fincons and Quintetto will strengthen their international market position, leveraging their presence in many different industries, serving both local and global customers worldwide, while retaining their mutual focus on service excellence.

Quintetto’s solutions and skills represent an important new asset for Fincons’ portfolio, especially for the Transportation and Media Business Units, which will be able to implement Quintetto’s best-of-breed technologies in real-time multi-device, multi-flow streaming with artificial intelligence and holographic solutions.

“We are happy to partner with such an innovative company” states Roman Kurzo, General Manager Global BU Transportation at Fincons, “the future of rail is digital and includes increasing interactive services and mixed reality and real-time streaming”. “The media sector is one of the pioneers for the real-time multi-device, multi-flow streaming,” adds Alberto Niero, General Manager Global BU Media at Fincons, “it is important to discover and invest in new technologies and valuable partners to offer the best solutions for the industry”.

“Quintetto’s strategy is focused on creating strategic alliances with major operators in technology and markets as Fincons, to ensure steady growth and exposure on a global scale”, says Ivano Canteri, Quintetto Marketing and Sales, “thanks to Fincons we have the opportunity to demonstrate our solutions’ value to international markets”.

 

Holography: our future presence?

An interview with Martin Richardson, Professor of modern holography, unveils a broad perspective for holographic telepresence in services, communications and arts as well.

André Martinuzzi, head of the Institute for Managing Sustainability of Vienna University of Economics and Business (WU Vienna) with whom Quintetto is collaborating on the front of holographic services, recently interviewed Professor Martin Richardson from De Montfort University at Leicester (UK). Professor Richardson is an expert on holography and its various fields of application being these commercial, functional or even artistic.

During the video interview (which can be found here), Professor Richardson points out a few key elements that are paramount for the understanding of the great potential that holography used for performing functions and not only for entertainment, can have in our daily life.

On efficiency of relationship and person-to-person  interaction:

“The standard two-dimensional format of flat screens is tiring for the eyes. Holographic telepresence overcomes this problem, as it offers a more curved reality, which provides incredible collaboration possibilities to its users and creates a much higher attention span.”

On customisation of individual experience:

“There is something about the pureness of a three-dimensional holographic telepresence, which takes on a different meaning for its user.”

On advancements in the technology:

“Apart from the increasing application of holograms in our daily life, there are ways emerging that use holographic optical elements, which overlap the world of holography with the real world. The actual big push in science is using holograms within Augmented Reality.”

The interview covers a very wide spectrum of aspects of holography, some unexpected and, in any case confirming that the impact of the technology on operations whatever the field of application, is exponential from the User Experience side to the actual achievement of greater efficiency and performance with respect to other technlogies.

Quintetto joins the ranks of the most innovative SME’s of Italy.

From the EU Seal of Excellence for Innovation to the forefront of the most innovative Italian SME’s.

Quintetto srl has become part of the Special Register for Innovative SME’s of Italy, a public initiative by the Ministry of Economic Development of Italy to favour the growth of technological innovation in all productive sectors and boost the productivity and competitiveness of Italy’s manufacturing industry.

Quintetto, awarded in 2016 and 2017 the European Union Seal of Excellence for Innovation, qualified to the Register by exceeding all criteria established by the Ministry: 1. high expenditure in R&D and innovation; 2. highly qualified personnel; 3. Ownership of registered patents.

The policy on innovative SMEs addresses only small and medium-sized enterprises qualified by a strong innovation component. There are no sectoral constraints nor age limits as the rationale is to foster innovation in any sector, including traditional ones, and regardless of companies’ stage of maturity.

The initiative allows “Innovative SME’s” to access an array of benefits aimed at facilitating their growth and international expansions such as fiscal incentives, equity crowfunding, internationalisation services easier access to grants and financing and so on: a set of pretty effective benefits allowing Quintetto to intensify its development & expansion strategy.
