  • NAPLES, ITALY - 21 OCTOBER 2020: Professor Giorgio Ventre (60), Director of the Department of Electrical Engineering and Information Technology and Scientific Director of the iOS Developer Academy, poses for a portrait at the Apple Developer Academy in Naples, Italy, on October 21st 2020.<br />
<br />
In the past few years Naples been fostering a growing community of tech start-ups and app creators. What has really changed the game for Naples' tech scene is Apple's recent arrival in the city. In 2015, Apple opened its Developer Acamdy in Naples, in conjunction with University of Naples Federico II, where students spend a year training to be developers, coders, app creators and start-up entrepreneurs. <br />
<br />
And where Apple goes, others follow. In 2018, networking giant Cisco opened its own networking academy in Naples.<br />
<br />
The hope is it will change not just Naples' reputation, but also its fortunes and so reverse a brain drain that's seen many of the city's young graduates leave to find jobs in the more prosperous north of Italy, or even abroad. Naples, and its region, Campania, is part of the Mezzogiorno (southern Italy and Sicily) which lags behind the rest of the country in terms of economic growth. Here the youth jobless rate was above 50% in 2019, among the highest unemployment rate in Europe.

The hope is it will change not just Naples' reputation, but also its fortunes and so reverse a brain drain that's seen many of the city's young graduates leave to find jobs in the more prosperous north of Italy, or even abroad. Naples, and its region, Campania, is part of the Mezzogiorno (southern Italy and Sicily) which lags behind the rest of the country in terms of economic growth. Here the youth jobless rate was above 50% in 2019, among the highest unemployment rate in Europe.

  • NAPLES, ITALY - 17 APRIL 2019: at Peppe Spritz, formerly known as Caffe dell'Europa, in Naples, Italy, on April 19th 2019.<br />
<br />
Peppe Spritz is the nickname for the co-owner Giuseppe Pianese who, together with his brother Giulio, runs the business started by their father Amedeo. Amedeo was a bartender  with a passion for art. That is why in 1989 he thought of opening a bar, which he called Caffe dell’Epoca, between Port’Alba and Piazza Bellini, between the music conservatory and the academy of fine arts. He loved talking with the academy teachers and tried his hand at some small works of art. As long as his son Peppe tells us, “a professor told him frankly: Amedeo let it go, better that you do the bartender and not the artist.” Peppe sells the spritz for 2 euros.
