Pisa among the first digital cities in Italy
«Pisa is confirmed as one of the first ‘digital cities’ in Italy; that is, cities that “use, in a widespread, organic and continuous way, new technologies in administrative activities, in the provision of services, in the collection and processing of data, in information and communication, in participation and to carry out innovation processes in order to improve the quality of life”. Thus the mayor of Pisa Michael Conti comments on the results of the survey presented in recent days at the “PA Città 2022 Forum”. Among the various indices, Pisa is in the Top 10 for online services and digital platforms available to citizens, and among the top 20 capital cities, out of 108 monitored, in the final ranking.
«A result which, if on the one hand satisfies us on the other, commits us to do even better for the future – continues the Mayor -. For some time now we have activated the PagoPA payment system for access to the services; from 2020, the registry certifications can be obtained at the city tobacconists; since 2021 we have activated branches for the release of digital identity, SPID. We have strengthened the coverage of public Wifi throughout the city. Our holdings are doing the same; Sepi is digitizing all services, has activated the digital bill and the tax payer’s portal. Furthermore, we recently obtained an important loan of 750 thousand euros, as part of the funds of the PNRR to make data even more efficient, reliable and secure and to improve navigation, usability and accessibility of the institutional site. In recent years we have also worked to improve digital services, allowing citizens to carry out a whole series of operations with the Municipality directly from their computer, tablet or smartphone. And we have enhanced information and communication with the main social channels. All this to make our city more and more modern and improve the quality of life for all of us. In recent years we have worked a lot on these issues for a digital transformation of the city that guarantees ever more efficient services to our citizens, improving the effectiveness of the municipal machinery and investee companies. Not everything is perfect yet but these awards are the stimulus to continue working in this direction for the Pisa of the future that we have in mind».
