“In the first half of 2024” - stated Mario Rizzante, Chairman of Reply - “we have experienced a positive trend, both in terms of revenue and profitability. These achievements were possible thanks to the leadership gained in the two main directions of technological transformation: artificial intelligence and cloud computing.”
“The strength of Reply” - continued Mario Rizzante - “has always been its ability to interpret innovation by making it relevant to the needs of companies. From this perspective, the first six months of 2024 were characterized by significant development in our main lines of offering. In particular, we witnessed a strong growth in demand from our customers for a new class of objects and services natively designed to integrate the most advanced artificial intelligence solutions onboard. This new way of interpreting artificial intelligence requires companies to pay great attention both in rethinking the underlying data models and in designing new architectures and conversational interfaces capable of fully exploiting its potential in complete security.”
“Being able to guide the growing spread of artificial intelligence” - concluded Mario Rizzante - “along with awareness of its potential and associated risks, is certainly the main challenge for the near future. In this scenario, Reply positions itself as a highly technological player capable of supporting its clients in creating the new digital economy.”
The Board of Directors of Reply has also approved the proposal to submit to the Extraordinary General Meeting of the Company, scheduled for September 17, 2024, on first call, the amendment of the Articles of Association, in order to allow, among other things, the enhancement of the increased voting system, in line with new legal provisions.
