Raul Pietrobon, the owner of Cambratech – goods for visually impaired people
Raul had a permanent job but was not satisfied. Once he met an orientation and mobility specialist who showed him a white cane made in Canada. Raul found out that there are few such goods in Italy. So, the idea of importing it from abroad came up. Raul started engaging in this activity, with the primary intention to better his financial situation.
Raul worked for the Italian Union of the Blind and Partially Sighted (Unione Italiana dei Ciechi e degli Ipovedenti) in the “Libro parlato” service and the “Dialogo nel buio” project.
Due to a lack of support from the state, he is trying to gather a group of people with sensory disabilities to apply for support from the government. Rauls says that he has to face the complicated Italian bureaucracy and inefficiencies of the local social services. His enterprise should also compete with e-commerce giants like Amazon. Despite all this, Raul is inspired and motivated since he can provide new goods and thus does not give up.
