Sicily guarantees funding for ‘Più Artigianato’ artisan program

The Sicilian Region has announced it will guarantee financial coverage for all applications submitted under the ‘Più Artigianato’ measure for the 2025 and 2026 years. This decision, announced by President Renato Schifani and Assessor Edy Tamajo, aims to provide stability for artisan businesses currently undertaking investment programs.

CNA Siracusa welcomed the move, noting that the measure is essential for regional competitiveness. In the province of Siracusa alone, the program has supported 540 applications, generating over 11 million euros in benefits through collaboration with Confidi UNICO. The association is now calling for the rapid reopening of the application platform to allow new requests to be processed.
