11. Italian industrial clusters
The last 15 years have seen a progressive and marked
growth in the number of clusters, favoured by national
and regional legislation and by the average small size of
Italian companies, which pushes them to create organic
and geographically close conglomerates of players
within the same supply chain/industry.
13. The Italian 3 F
We breath beauty growing up around beautiful monuments and
learning from handicrafts.
For many respects the Italian economic system is an
Experience Economy ante litteram.
14. Experiencing excellence
TOURISM
With more than 33,000 hotels and 400,000 employees, the tourism sector
is one of the driving forces of the Italian economy. Accommodation,
infrastructure and services, particularly with regard to transport and
reception facilities are the strenghts for investments in our country.
The country offers enormous potential for growth and exceptional
investment opportunities.
AUTOMOTIVE
This sector is a star performer in the Italian manufacturing arena, thanks
especially to the presence of large car-manufacturing companies (such as
Fiat, Ferrari, Alfa Romeo, Lancia, Lamborghini, and Maserati) and other
motor-vehicle manufacturers (Aprilia, Ducati and Piaggio) which create a
significant allied economy among small and medium-sized enterprises.

15. Experiencing excellence
LIFE SCIENCES
Italy has a long and well established tradition of production and
research in the life sciences sector.
Over 400 pharmaceutical and biotechnological companies operate
in Italy, both national companies like Menarini, Recordati, Zambon,
Schiapparelli, Angelini, Bracco, Sifi and Sigma-Tau and local subsidiaries
of foreign groups like GlaxoSmith&Kline and Bayer
CHEMICAL
For many products Italian market ranks even second in Europe. And
many chemical foreign owned companies have decided to place here
their strategic basis to manage operations in Southern Europe. The
quality of research and widely recognised scientific expertise are an
important attraction, especially in fine and specialised chemistry.

16. Experiencing excellence
AEROSPACE
Italy is a world leader in helicopter manufacture, a European leader in
flight-training planes and a principal performer in the development of new
concepts.
Piemonte is the more specialized region in aerospace industry
RENEWABLE ENERGY
The photovoltaic industry is growing rapidly and should grow further in
the near future. Attractive feed-in tariffs and favourable climatic
conditions are the main drivers of this industry Investments from
European groups are increasing, especially in southern regions
such as Apulia and Calabria
.
17. Fashion & luxury
With revenues of EUR 48 billion, 70,000 companies and 700,000
workers, Italy has the most active fashion and luxury industry in the
world.
If we say "Italian Fashion“, most people probably will think first of Milan.
But in fact fashion in Italy means much more than a single city or
region. Because so much of Italy's fashion production - textiles, apparel,
shoes, accessories, etc. - takes place in small factories and craft
workshops scattered around the country.
Besides a few large players the market is characterised
by a large number of small and medium-sized
enterprises often operating in market niches.
These companies are rich in the creativity and
technological skill which are the strategic factors in the
worldwide prestige of Italian fashion.
19. Italian sizes
Italy has a smaller number of world class multinational corporations than
other economies of comparable size.
Instead, the country’s main economic strength has been its large
base of small- and medium-sized companies. Some of these
companies manufacture products that are technologically advanced and
therefore face increasing competition from China and other emerging
Asian economies which are able to undercut them on labour costs.
These Italian companies are responding to the Asian competition by
concentrating on products with a higher technological content,
while moving lower-tech manufacturing to plants in countries where
labour is less expensive.
21. Invest in Lombardy
Lombardy remained close to the group of the ten most attractive
regions of Western Europe.
Milan ranks 8th among Western European cities by number of the
inbound investment projects during 2003-2012 decade and it is
ahead Amsterdam, Berlin, Vienna, Stockholm, Brussels, Düsseldorf,
Copenhagen, Zürich and Hamburg.
