Alessandro Cruto and Arturo Malignani took part in the development of the electric light bulb, one of the most universally acquired topos in the history of technology and inventions. Both inventors, entrepreneurs and self-taught scholars, from Turin and Udine respectively, managed to carve out a role in the emerging Italian electrical industry, benefiting from the proximity of the intellectual and business communities that revitalized the cultural climate of the nation. They were indeed in touch with some of the protagonists of that time, such as Galileo Ferraris, Giuseppe Colombo, Thomas Alva Edison, and they exported their findings and technologies abroad.
