Genoa-Milan. A great milestone for smart mobility and non-scheduled public transport in Italy. YOUR TAXI, the solid radiotaxi company uniting professionals from Genoa and the main locations on the Ligurian coast, officially joins Italian Taxi Network (ITN). The national network based on technological roaming, born from the strategic alliance between appTaxi, TaxiMove, and BTaxi, thus consolidates its position as the absolute point of reference for the entire country.

The announcement comes the day after the conference and official presentation of YOUR TAXI’s entry into ITN, held yesterday in Genoa in the presence of regional and national political representatives. It was an important and significant moment for the entire Italian taxi system, in defense of non-scheduled public transport, the category, and the cooperative world, with the aim of strengthening the role of the taxi service as an essential garrison for mobility, legality, and labor protection.

As highlighted by the President of appTaxi, Stefano Salzani:

“In a global market that often imposes algorithms from above, our response is a technology that enhances local identities. Genoa and Liguria, with their extraordinary tourist vocation, are not passively undergoing digitalization, but are governing it, maintaining the autonomy of local businesses and guaranteeing high standards of safety and reliability”.

With this strategic move, which precedes the major national ITN event scheduled in Milan for June 6th, the network expands its geographical coverage in an area with a very strong tourist and commercial vocation, offering citizens and visitors an integrated, top-level service.

Roaming technology at the service of the citizen

Thanks to the integration into ITN, customers moving around Genoa, Sanremo, Savona, and La Spezia or traveling to other major Italian cities (such as Milan, Bologna, or Florence) will benefit from a single digital ecosystem. The technological roaming infrastructure allows the network’s various applications to communicate instantly with each other: users can request a car wherever they are using their preferred app, eliminating waiting times and maintaining high quality standards.

“The entry of colleagues from Genoa and the Ligurian coast proves that technological innovation and digitalization don’t necessarily have to come from foreign financial giants with predatory logic. They can be born, develop, and triumph from within the non-scheduled public service, enhancing local identities and guaranteeing legality, safety, and dignity of work.”

— Stefano Salzani, President of appTaxi

Against algorithms from above: the “Italian way” to innovation

In a global market where large mobility multinationals try to impose rules and speculative rates, impoverishing the local economic fabric and making drivers’ jobs precarious, the response from ITN and appTaxi is radically different. It is a model made by taxi drivers, for taxi drivers, created to defend and innovate the profession from the inside.

With this operation, Genoa and the beautiful destinations of the Ligurian coast are not passively undergoing digitalization and are not being “colonized” by a global brand. On the contrary, they are governing it. Individual entities maintain their full entrepreneurial autonomy, ensuring that strategic decisions and the fruits of labor remain firmly in the hands of local professionals and the territory.

The advantages of the operation in brief:

for tourists and citizens: more efficient mobility, capillary coverage throughout Italy, and waiting times reduced to a minimum through a familiar, safe, and reliable interface.
for Ligurian taxi drivers: access to a national network of customers (roaming), defense of the profession from speculative platforms, and maintenance of economic value within the territory.
for public administrations: a solid, Italian technological partner to build modern, efficient, sustainable, and citizen-friendly local public transport.

The final appeal is addressed to political and local institutions: govern the digital transition alongside Italian consortia, protecting an essential public service that works as a team, invests in advanced technology, but puts passenger safety and respect for the territory at the center.

United in this network, we are giants too, but with a soul, a history, and social responsibility.

A warm welcome on board to the entire YOUR TAXI team!
