Italian company Olivetti invented the world\u2019s first desktop computer – Programma 101 – in 1965, well ahead of major computer companies. The revolutionary little machine was the product of a sweeping utopian project of company president Adriano Olivetti, who aimed to transform the relationship between technology, art, society & the human spirit.<\/p>\n
