“The conquest of distance” is the expression used to remember the amazing escalation of the young Marconi who, in only six years, and always through his personal experimentation, extended the radio telegraphic distance from the 2 kilometers of Villa Griffone, in 1895, to the 3.400 kilometers that separates the two shores of the Atlantic, in 1901.

To such escalation is dedicated a contest of ideas for developing an Apple and/or Android application, announced by the Marconi Foundation and the Marconi Institute for Creativity.

Three projects were chosen: the first presented by Luca Contato, Alessandro Di Lecce and Daniela Arienti; the second by Massimo Divito and Valerio De Felice; and the third by Matteo Gabella.

The winning app is now available on Google play.
