Keys to success in investment rounds by immigrant entrepreneurs in Silicon Valley
2019
[EN] This study presents an updated diagnosis of the SV ecosystem itself and offers an insight into the entrepreneurial mobility trends prospects and expectations of the growing number of start-ups launched by immigrant entrepreneurs arriving in SV. The purpose is to determine and rank the attributes most valued by investors when assessing projects and start-ups founded by immigrant entrepreneurs. The model of analysis composed by three hypotheses leads to a series of findings about the profile and expectations of the immigrant entrepreneurs, and reveals remarkable hints and key targets to be met by immigrant entrepreneurs in SV in order to successfully close investment rounds in a hypercom…
Tell Shiyukh Tahtani on the Euphrates. Highlights of the last excavation seasons
2010
In recent years (2006-09) the University of Palermo Euphrates expedition has continued rescue excavations at Tell Shiyukh Tahtani (the “Lower Hill of Sheikhs”) as part of the Tishreen Dam Salvage Project. Located on the left bank of the River south of Jerablus, in the land that once was the Carchemish district, this small mound has revealed a long occupation sequence from around 3.000 B.C. to Byzantine and early Islamic times. During the last three seasons we mainly concentrated in the investigation of the eastern slope of the upper tell (Area CD), where a continuous Bronze Age occupation has been detected. Apart from the later levels (EB IV, Middle and Late Bronze Age), one of the main goa…

The evolution of the local role(s) of the university in a low-tech region
2013
The present case study addresses the case of a geographical area neglected by most of the literature about the changing role of Higher Education Institutions (HEIs): the low-tech contexts. This literature has traditionally exhibited two primary aspects. First, a focus on success stories such as entrepreneurial universities located in high-tech regions (e.g. Silicon Valley). Second, it reveals an inclination towards an evolution from ivory towers to entrepreneurial universities. The article argues that this oversimplification does not apply exactly to some environments where the HEIs have maintained links with industry since their inception. The purpose is to demonstrate HEIs' relevance in l…
L'architettura di Francesco Venezia nella ricostruzione post-sismica del Belice
2014
Una breve descrizione dei progetti realizzati da Francesco Venezia nei luoghi della tragedia sismica del Belice Questo breve testo si pone l’obiettivo di restringere il campo d’analisi nella descrizione di alcune opere realizzate dall’architetto campano, probabilmente il più grande interprete dei temi legati alla ricostruzione intesa come metafora e memoria del paesaggio della tragedia. Grazie alle esperienze di progetto maturate nel Belice, Francesco Venezia ha affermato il proprio profilo professionale catturando l’attenzione della critica internazionale che da allora lo ha seguito costantemente nella sua importante carriera di progettista, arrivando a segnalare alcune opere siciliane nel…

Distribution patterns of amphibians from the Kakamega forest, Kenya
2005
We discuss generalized geographical range patterns for the 24 anuran species that occur in the Kakamega Forest, western Kenya. Eight distributions are distinguished: from "western Equatorial Rift Valley" to almost entire sub-Saharan. The former may be more common than previously assumed, because some species displaying this geographical range pattern were only recently identified out of species complexes with large distributions. In contrast, continuous distributions of species over the Congo basin may be less common than currently understood.

GIBELLINA: VANGUARD OF A COSMOPOLITAN CITY
2021
Gibellina is a city formed by orogenesis. It was reborn after a dramatic earthquake and shook the sediment off urban theory, becoming a city open to the world and to the worlds of contemporary culture; of architecture, art, theatre. To understand its revolutionary force, we must immerse ourselves in the context of 1968, when an earthquake hit the Belice Valley with a violence capable of damaging fourteen cities and razing four of them—including Gibellina— to the ground. The earthquake marked a sharp break in the historical continuity of the small, rural centre of Sicily. The original site of the town was abandoned and another city was built from scratch for the surviving inhabitants. The ci…
