Just for info:  
l'assessore di competenza su queste competenze della città di  
Barcellona è Francesca Bria.  
Francesca è di Roma, ha svolto un dottorato a Londra per poi lavorare  
a Nesta - agenzia di innovazione sociale del governo UK  
La sindaca di Barcellona ha coinvolto la Bria come assessore tecnico.  
Ho avuto il piacere di conoscere Francesca nel 2007 durante il  
festival dell'innovazione.  
Quel giorno lei mi ha presentato Richard Stallman 🙂

Di recente è stata anche a Trento  
Qui una sua intervista

... ma online si trova molto su di lei.
