/ The Italian Market in a few words

Setting up in Italy provides access to a dense and dynamic industrial landscape comprising a network of 4 million SMEs renowned for their adaptability and agility in a changing environment. The country harbors creative and innovative entrepreneurs with a highly skilled technical workforce proficient in knowledge and quality standards.

Over 90% of industrial companies in Italy have fewer than 100 employees. The luxury goods market (high fashion, cars, gourmet foods) is a significant part of the country’s economic activity, making it one of the main exporters of such products.

Key sectors in Italy include advanced machinery, motor vehicles, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, electrical products, and fashion.

The political stability ensured by the Renzi government, coupled with its rapid pace of reforms, has been positively received by investors. Italy has a large domestic market, a strong industrial base, and stands as a major economy within Europe.
