Italy

As a keystone of the EU, Italy has been at the heart of international political and economic development. While Italy has always been a focus for European trade and investment, the reform of corporate, tax and employment law is set to make it an increasingly attractive environment for both inward investors and national enterprises.

With a highly competitive, efficient and adaptable national industry and a history of forging bilateral relationships to enter other international markets, Italy is a serious player on the international stage. Domestically, pivotal sectors are showing strong growth, and developments in the energy, infrastructure, real estate and telecommunications sectors make Italy a prime market for national and international companies.
