Following the launch of Digital Factory, the open innovation platform created in collaboration with I3P, the Innovative Companies Incubator of Politecnico di Torino, CA Auto Bank Group has selected six technology projects from the first 150 submitted on the initiative’s website. These projects will take part in a joint experimentation phase through the implementation of field-based Proofs of Concept (PoC), aimed at testing and validating the best innovative solutions entered within each relevant thematic cluster.
In the Remarketing (Drivalia Future) area, the project proposed by Air - Connected Mobility, a young Milan-based company founded in 2014, was selected. Having completed its incubation at I3P, the company — along with its sister subsidiary Fit2You Broker — is part of the Valandro Group, an insurance agency specializing in the automotive sector with over 50 years of experience and operating as the Italian representative of the AXA Group. Within this dynamic ecosystem, Air develops mobilitech solutions by analyzing and processing mobility data to enable connected and totally safe driving, supported by satellite tracking services that ensure constant vehicle monitoring.
The project submitted to Digital Factory was MyPrice, a platform designed to support companies in the analysis of the pricing process for remarketing operations by drawing on various market indicators. MyPrice is built on the principle that all relevant data should be consolidated on a single platform, where it can be viewed and analyzed effectively, so as to streamline and expedite the decision-making process through recommended actions based on cross-referenced data.
“This opportunity has allowed Air to showcase the potential of the MyPrice tool. By digitalizing the processes of vehicle pricing, allocation, and distribution, our solution significantly reduces the margin of error and increases profitability”, said Igor Valandro, Co-Founder & CEO of Air - Connected Mobility. “We are grateful to CA Auto Bank and I3P for enabling us to test our solution in a real-world setting through Digital Factory. We’re confident this marks the beginning of a valuable strategic partnership for both sides”.
“In Air’s project proposal and its MyPrice platform, we saw a valuable opportunity to collaborate with a team of innovators specializing in digital transformation within the mobility sector”, commented Franco Oltolini, Head of Remarketing & Drivalia Future. “We recognize strong potential in the technology developed by this company, which we are currently evaluating and testing within our international operations. Just as importantly, we share core values — safety, efficiency, and environmental responsibility — pursued through the smart application of cutting-edge technology”.
