AGGIORNAMENTO PERMANENTE
IN PERSON
“Italia, quo vadis?” Current situation and future perspectives for the Country (with networking cocktail)

Parco dei Principi Grand Hotel Via G. Frescobaldi, 5 - ROMA


Italy is currently at a turning point. The economic, political and social transformations of recent years have made it even more urgent to reflect on the direction the country is taking and on the ability of the Italian system to effectively address both global and domestic challenges.
The meeting will bring together a panel of experts who will offer a comprehensive assessment of the current state of affairs and the country’s future prospects. The aim is to build a shared and pragmatic vision of the key issues that must be addressed in order to relaunch growth, competitiveness and social cohesion.

In particular, the discussion will focus on:

  • Italy’s positioning in the new global context: how the country is responding to a world shaped by geopolitical tensions, technological competition and new value chains; what risks lie ahead and what room for national policy action remains
  • political stability, institutional reforms and the outlook for the current legislature: the possible evolution of Italy’s political and institutional system, including the justice referendum, the electoral law and scenarios for the next legislative term
  • growth and supporting factors in a context of global uncertainty: in light of a more unstable external environment, what are the prospects for domestic demand, consumption and investment (both public and private)?
  • the role of the National Recovery and Resilience Plan (NRRP) as a lever for strengthening the country’s structural foundations: which drivers can support potential growth, and what are the main challenges, starting with population ageing and demographic trends.
