"The first quarter of 2024", Reply Chairman Mario Rizzante has said, “was positive, both in terms of revenues and margins. Since the beginning of the year, we have seen an increased interest in applications related to the use of artificial intelligence, an area where Reply has long been committed and where it has acquired a leading position in the market."
"In particular," continues Mario Rizzante, "the increasingly pervasive diffusion of artificial intelligence is accelerating the evolution from models composed of a few large core applications to scenarios based on a fragmentation of global services and platforms. As Reply, we are working with our customers on projects aimed at introducing artificial intelligence within the main marketing, sales, production, distribution processes, as well as in the products. Other major areas of interest include in-vehicle artificial intelligence and new conversational interfaces based on spatial computing platforms". "Today, however, we are still at the beginning of a huge transformation. - concludes Mario Rizzante - In the next few years, the widespread adoption and ongoing advancements of artificial intelligence will require everyone to make a great effort in the continuous redefinition of systems and the way of working; two areas in which Reply is significantly investing, in specific solutions and specific expertise, to support companies in what will be the challenge of the future."
The manager responsible for preparing the company's financial reports, Giuseppe Veneziano, states in accordance with Paragraph 2 of Article 154-bis of the Consolidated Finance Act, that the accounting information contained in this press release corresponds to the company's records, ledgers and accounting entries.
