BEYOND THE INVISIBLE. A PRELUDE TO TRIESTE NEXT 2025

Federico Faggin, fisico, inventore, imprenditore, autore di Oltre l’invisibile (Mondadori)

Marco Panara, editorialista quotidiani Gruppo NEM Nord-Est Multimedia

Federico Faggin, the pioneer of the technological revolution that gave birth to the microprocessor, returns to Trieste Next to tackle the greatest mystery of all: consciousness. After decades of research, Faggin offers a bold and unconventional vision in which science and spirituality are not in conflict but intertwined—forming a single discipline that seeks to uncover the deeper meaning of the universe and of our very existence. At a time marked by the rise of artificial intelligence and the risk of a reductive scientism that reduces human beings to machines, his latest book invites us to rethink the very foundations of knowledge, embracing the unresolved mysteries of quantum physics—from consciousness to free will, from entanglement to the nature of reality itself.
