The Annual Area Meeting of CCIEs Asia & South Africa focuses on ITALICS The Indo-Italian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (IICCI) hosted the annual Area Meeting of the Italian Chambers of Commerce Abroad (CCIEs) from 17-20 March, 2016, in Mumbai. IICCI also commemorated their 50 year anniversary of activity as a Chamber this year, becoming the oldest Chamber abroad for the area. The focus of the meeting, attended by all the CCIE area representatives was titled “ The Italics – A New Frontier for the Italian Global Business Communities “

“The Italics – A New Frontier for the Italian Glocal Business Communities ” The former President of Assocamerestero, Piero Bassetti, attended the meeting via video conference. He was the first person to introduce and explain the meaning of the Italics concept. The attending Chambers discussed hypotheses for additional services, exchanged ideas for future initiatives involving multi Chamber’s as well as general planning going forward. Claudio Maffioletti, Secretary General IICCI, has declared “ The Italics community represents a huge market, whose potential is still not fully acknowledged. There are certainly several aspects that require a more in-depth consideration: what are the characteristics of an ‘Italic product’ or an ‘Italic company’? What synergies can be generated among products ‘Made in Italy’ and ‘Made by Italics’? How to exploit the driving effect of ‘Italian sounding’ products? Also, in this context, what can be the role of the 79 Italian Chambers of Commerce Abroad (CCIEs)? Being present in 54 countries, the CCIEs represent around 18,000 associated companies, 88% of which are local enterprises that consider Italy a relevant partner for their business and investments. CCIEs, thanks to their nature of bodies deeply rooted in their territories but also strictly connected to Italy, are the natural point of reference for this community ”.

The Chamber of Commerce is pleased to partner and support as well as assist in stand sales during the fairs related to Good Food and Wine show. For more info contact us: EMail info@italcham.co.za
