The General Assembly of Confindustria Est Europa was held on 25 May in the prestigious Sala delle Colonne at the Viale Pola premises of Luiss Guido Carli University.
An important moment of high-level discussion, in which the scenarios and trends that will shape Eastern Europe in the near future were set out.
Eastern Europe is at the centre of Italy's foreign policy, as well as an area of great interest for business internationalisation.
For the occasion, the International Representative Offices of Confindustria Est Europa came from the various countries to support the Federation, proving once again that “working as a system” is always the winning choice.
Our thanks to the President of Luiss Guido Carli University, Vincenzo Boccia; to the President of Confindustria, Carlo Bonomi; to the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation, the Hon. Antonio Tajani; to the President of the IAI, Ferdinando Nelli Feroci; to the Senior Partner of Prometeia, Alessandra Lanza; to the Head of Export and Subsidised Finance at SIMEST, Carolina Lonetti; to the Director of Institutional Affairs at SACE, Cristiana Portale; to the Head of UniCredit International Center Italy, Alessandro Paoli; to the Vice-President of Confindustria Est Europa and President of Confindustria Romania, Giulio Bertola; to all participants; and for the contribution of the event's excellent moderator, Dr Andrea Cabrini.
As President Meroni recalled, the aim of the Assembly was to “bring more Eastern Europe into Italy”, including through the presentation of the Country Guide 2023, produced in collaboration with Luiss University and with the support of Official Partner UniCredit.
It was also an occasion to recall that, for all the plurality of countries and languages in this strategic neighbourhood, “Confindustria's language is the same for everyone”.
