Find out why the city of Turin employs a 10,000-strong community of well-educated and skilled people

As part of Turin`s Innova.TO programme

Turin`s Innova.TO programme, engage the city’s staff in an unprecedented exercise to propose innovation projects that could improve the city’s administrative performance through better use of resources and capacity. The city of Turin employs a 10,000-strong community of well-educated, skilled people - to encourage all these employees to see themselves as potential innovators. 

The idea is very simple: turn to the people who know best the administrative machine from inside, and encourage them to come up with ideas that can be implemented at no cost, beside time, and can help the city to improve its processes and therefore increase its impact on the lives of its citizens.
