“This is what partners are also there for, to help us achieve things we could never achieve on our own”. Here we are, facing another challenge in an unusual context.
The opportunity has been offered to us by Sikelia, one of the key Italian players in ATM management and monitoring, with a network of 10,000 machines and member of ATMIA, the ATM Industry Association, which has a total of 2,600 members in 60 countries worldwide and whose mission is to promote the development and use of ATM/POS machines.

Sikelia is the Partner with which AlmavivA took part in the “First World Conference of ATMIA for Eastern European Countries” in Moscow, on 24-25 April.
AlmavivA presented the highlights of an agreement with Sikelia, along with its specific capabilities and competencies in the field, at an event which enabled everybody to investigate the potential of a strongly evolving market.

We involved one of our clients in the event, Banca Popolare di Sondrio. The presence there of the Bank’s Deputy General Director, Milo Gusmeroli, bears witness to the importance the markets are giving to the management of ATMs, as an element of diversification in customer relations, according to an extended multi-channel approach.
The speech by the representative of Banca Popolare di Sondrio, prepared with the assistance of AlmavivA and Sikelia, underlined the strategic role of the System Integrator, as a partner for banks in the implementation of Information System transformation and evolution processes, and capable of ensuring the flexibility of and speeding up the processes for supporting customer relations, which would otherwise be very hard to achieve. In such a complex and diversified scenario, with representatives from all over the world, it was the first time for AlmavivA, Sikelia and Banca Popolare di Sondrio, the only speakers from Italy at the event. Therefore, we were highly pleased with the appreciation shown by the organizers of the Conference for our speech.

About 200 Russian and European banks were present at the Conference, besides some world-renowned services firms. During the sessions and at one-to-one meetings, we had the opportunity to meet the representatives of banks of the importance of Sberbank and Unicredit Est, besides many other Russian companies. Of particular relevance, our meeting with Diasoft, one of the key Russian players in the Finance – Banking & Insurance sector, with which we are engaged in an off-loading pilot on Java of our assets. The results are encouraging, also with a view to a joint project in June, vis-à-vis certain Italian bank and insurance clients, to present the opportunities and services based on the Diasoft platform called Flextera.
