Confimprese Italia marks 30th anniversary with Fiuggi summit

The 30th anniversary of Confimprese Italia was marked by a major summit in Fiuggi, focusing on the challenges facing micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) amidst global economic volatility. Key institutional figures, including Minister Adolfo Urso and Vice Premier Matteo Salvini, participated in discussions regarding industrial policy, energy efficiency, and the need for bureaucratic simplification to foster growth.

The summit concluded with the signing of the ‘Carta di Fiuggi’ (Fiuggi Charter), a document outlining proposals for increasing SME competitiveness, improving access to credit, and facilitating internationalization. European officials, including Raffaele Fitto and Antonella Sberna, emphasized the importance of supporting small businesses to ensure economic cohesion and growth within the European Union.

Other regional events in Italy included the ‘Facce da Bronzi’ comedy festival selection in Rome, Unicef’s ‘Ulivo’ fundraising campaign in Avellino, and the 14th edition of the ‘Mese dell’Affido’ in Florence to promote foster care awareness.
