"Solaria Space". Here is the culture of innovation

The deconsecrated church of San Paolo Converso, on the corner of Piazza Sant'Eufemia, which becomes an exhibition center open to the public. A hub of generative artificial intelligence, Solaria Space. All this, adjacent to the building designed in the 1950s by Gio Ponti, Antonio Fornaroli and Piero Portaluppi, between Via Santa Sofia and Corso Italia. Inside, an auditorium, a food court, a radio and a space dedicated to well-being. This is how Deloitte's new Milanese "perimeter" develops.

The headquarters hosts 6,500 workers, one hundred of whom are employed in the center of excellence, led by GenAI leader Lorenzo Cerulli, who makes use of the collaboration of technological partners such as Nvidia, Google Cloud, Aws, Ibm and Meta. A "tangible sign of our desire to invest in artificial intelligence issues, because it will be a real revolution, which will pervasively affect not individual processes but entire organizational and management models of companies, and therefore we felt we had to be present", underlines the CEO of

Deloitte Central Mediterranean Fabio Pompei.

The consulting firm plans to invest, globally, over 3 billion dollars in the new technology. Like the similar space in Rome, the Solaria Space in Milan is dedicated to employees but also to customers. The goal is to develop vertical and sectoral applications. At the ribbon cutting, together with the CEO, among others, also the vice president of the European Commission Raffaele Fitto, the mayor of Milan Giuseppe Sala, the vice president of the Senate Licia Ronzulli.
