The launch event was attended by 3 Italia CEO Vincenzo Novari, along with the mayor of Acuto, Augusto Agostini, and famous astronaut Umberto Guidoni, who was born locally. Explaining the unusual launch location, Novari commented: ‘Our choice was to start from a small town – the first of a series of forty municipalities the digital divide – that will connect together large urban areas by 2013’
