During these days of in-store stalls, a lot of Italian companies are dealing with digital transformation but are them all well prepared?

The traditional brick-and-mortar business models are still looking for their “way” to embrace digital technology to boost efficiency and improve the customer experience.


What can we do to accelerate this transformation? 

We can learn from the “Giant of Digital transformation”: China!


The Digital Giant, after showing a drop rate of over 80% in traffic in-store, during the peak moment of COVID-19, is now on its way to recovery. According to data, the resumption of purchases could accelerate in the next few weeks, fueled by a psychological effect that analysts call “revenge spending”.

Chinese people will take revenge from the period spent at home and will start doing frenetic shopping, starting from the domestic brands to the international ones. 


How does digital transformation support China’s economy and what we can learn from it?



On March 10th, Simon Hu, Ceo of Ant Financial, revealed the Alipay three years plan on the occasion of the Alipay partner Conference in Hangzhou, China.

Alipay the world’s leading mobile payment platform has a new goal: to support the digital transformation of 40 million service providers across China! 

The plan marks the role of the platform which is shifting from “financial services to an open, vibrant digital ecosystem that offers users a gateway into a comprehensive digital lifestyle, right in the palms of their hands”.



Alibaba the digital hands during Covid-19 China’s outbreak


Alipay, the Super lifestyle APP of Alibaba’s world, has launched the contactless mini-program, incentive program which helps grocery deliveries, legal, medical advice, logistic and public services to fulfill various lifestyle needs of those who are living and working from home while minimizing the need for physical contact with service providers.


Through the contactless mini-program the delivery services have reduced, and almost eliminated direct physical contacts. Instead of being handed over directly to the recipient, fresh food deliveries and mail packages are either left in front  doors or handed over specific collection points to limit the through traffic in living complexes of the numerous delivery services


An example is a medical sector,  the mini-program offered by Ali health: a providing free medical consultation, adopted by Chinese provincial governments to track people’s mobility and regulate their movements based on an assessment of their potential Covid-19 infection risks.
