“We are come here to perceive directly and without intermediaries trends and technologies. ” This tells Julius Caperdoni that with Luca Valsecchi created in 2015 VDM Labs in San Francisco, an antenna in California VidiemmeConsulting of Milan, a company that deals with digital technology in web, mobile and wearable devices connected.
Focus scouting
VDM Labs based in the co-working of Mind the Bridge, in Townsendstreet, in the new area of SoMa, San Francisco, next to many other startups and tech companies. In its first year of activity, despite the initial focus was mainly the business of technology scouting, by participating in networking events and rapid word of mouth, the first guests arrived. The antenna pointing to the Silicon Valley, as well as the first trials of applications related to Google Glass made in Italy as early as 2013, they immediately made VDM Labs a valuable subject with which to compare and to draw on ideas and proposals. This step also served to find and consolidate important customers in Europe, some way you obtain that until then seemed unattainable.
technological waves
The famous ecosystem of this area of the world is propagated by waves technologies which intercept each new player. Especially here in San Francisco and Silicon Valley there is a market that seeks innovations, creativity, solutions. With the Italian base behind Julius Caperdoni was initially proposed for offshore development, looking for software orders from then to develop the Italian team of 60 developers and a permanent technology advisors team. In San Francisco and Silicon Valley in the demand for software development it is very high and seems to increase exponentially, just think of the big car manufacturer, but not only them, that are shifting much of their research and development between the Bay Area and Silicon Valley; this question together with the great difficulty of obtaining work visas for those coming from abroad makes developers a rare and coveted commodity.
Moves Zuckerberg
It ‘s possible for a company that wants to have an employment contract for an engineer, apply for a visa for him. However, since the number of inputs to quota restrictions, the demands are far above the established numbers. Even Mark Zuckerberg, the head of Facebook, you are working to unblock this impasse is the spokesman of the lobby that seeks to obtain from the US government a greater number of work permits, at least for this particular sector. While large companies, Facebook, Google, Apple in the head, but also the so-called unicorn, drugs on the market, taking vezzeggiando and their developers. “At Google you can also bring your laundry to be washed in the office, as well as free food, to be taken home, to have the gym, the music room ….”
Bangalore at work
engineers and developers of Bangalore Indian or Chinese ones continue to work, covered with commissions to be carried out without moving from their countries and therefore labor costs extremely competitive. Today, the phenomenon is also spreading to developers working in those that are centers of excellence for the tech market such as Israel, Berlin and London, which offer less competitive prices but much higher skills. In this context, a precise Julius Caperdoni, it is important to be able to communicate the benefits of tailoring the software to enterprise customers. The redefinition of the strategy means “work for not simply be regarded developers of single app but interlocutors able to implement complex projects involving the integration of logical mobile within business processes and advising clients to manage change.”
Ancient roots
This is the time of evolution of the cabinet towards IoT and wearable, but for Caperdoni l ‘experience in the tech world has deep roots. He worked from the end of 80 years, in part also in the United States, Digital Equipment, a pioneer in TCP-IP technologies. They were 150,000 employees and had already an internal network with many services that can be considered ancestors of the Internet as we know it since the advent of web on. Back in Italy he started to say: “I have seen the future, we can not lose” founding Zeropiu with the current CEO of Vidiemme, Luca Valsecchi. “What the future holds? The best way to answer this question is to be exactly where we are, here where does innovation. “
