What is FTS Digital ?
The idea of FTS Digital emerged from our acknowledgment of the acceleration in digital content in the last couple of years – even more so in the last few months.
FTS Digital is meant to be a platform for our partners to create and disseminate diversified cross-platform content while exploring the most relevant issues in the sector and discussing them with the “boots on the ground”, to craft immersive storytelling.

Partnership with Deloitte
The COVID-19 pressure put on companies and the economy as a whole to keep operations active in the last months has once again shown that, although key forces are constantly changing, there are two key enablers for economic resilience.
