Raniero Romagnoli among the protagonists of the VivaTech 2025 event
16 June 2025
During NVIDIA GTC Paris at VivaTech 2025, Raniero Romagnoli, CTO of Almawave, shared a vision of innovation, determination, and strategic partnership with Oracle.
Almawave embraced an ambitious idea: to build a generative AI entirely developed in Italy, fully aligned with European regulations and designed with sustainability in mind.
This is how Velvet, our family of large language models, was born.
To support this project, a solid, scalable, and reliable infrastructure was essential — and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) proved to be the right choice, enabling us to unlock the full potential of artificial intelligence.
Together, Almawave and Oracle are delivering responsible AI to critical sectors such as public administration, where compliance and digital sovereignty are non-negotiable.
Today, this strategic alliance allows Almawave to scale rapidly, with a shared go-to-market approach and a common entrepreneurial vision.
“In a fast and competitive market like AI, people, technology, and speed make the difference. With Oracle, we found all of that.”
