PRESS RELEASE

Business Representatives Join Forces to Build the Future of Enterprises

Casartigiani Campania and Consorzio Suggestioni Campane Promotion & Confimi Industria Campania sign a Framework Agreement to strengthen dialogue among businesses, institutions and territories

Naples, 28 July 2026 – In an increasingly complex economic environment, marked by profound geopolitical, technological and social changes, business representative organisations are called upon to play an increasingly strategic role in supporting enterprises as they move towards new models of development.

The acceleration of innovation, growing competitive pressure from large multinational groups, the transformation of global value chains, the rise of artificial intelligence and cognitive robotics, together with changing market and consumer behaviour, require representation that not only protects businesses but also provides concrete support throughout their processes of innovation, training, internationalisation and growth.

With this vision, on Wednesday, 29 July 2026, at 11:00 a.m., at the headquarters of Casartigiani Campania, Piazza Garibaldi 73, Naples, the Institutional Cooperation Framework Agreement between Casartigiani Campania and Consorzio Suggestioni Campane Promotion & Confimi Industria Campania will be signed.

The Agreement stems from the shared desire to establish stable cooperation between the two organisations, enhancing their respective expertise and building operational synergies in support of micro, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in Campania.

The agreement promotes joint initiatives in the fields of training, research, innovation, digitalisation, technological transition, access to finance, workplace safety, business internationalisation, export promotion, the enhancement of Made in Italy, high-quality craftsmanship, agri-food, jewellery, tourism, local identity-based products and production supply chains. It also encourages participation in regional, national and European programmes and the development of collaborative networks among businesses, institutions, universities and the research system.

The shared objective is to contribute to building a permanent dialogue between the productive system and institutions, promoting an integrated vision of development involving the entire regional economic value chain, from agriculture to craftsmanship, from industry to commerce and services. This reflects the conviction that only stable cooperation among all economic and social stakeholders can strengthen the competitiveness of the territory.

The Agreement also recognises the value of continuous training and skills development as essential tools enabling businesses and workers to address the profound transformations taking place in production processes and organisational models, while preventing technological innovation from creating new forms of economic and employment exclusion.

The official signing will be attended by Dr Luciano Luongo, Coordinator of Casartigiani Campania, and Luigi Carfora, President of Consorzio Suggestioni Campane Promotion & Confimi Industria Campania.

Luigi Carfora

President of Consorzio Suggestioni Campane Promotion & Confimi Industria Campania

"We are living through one of the most important transitions in contemporary economic history. We are not simply witnessing the introduction of new technologies, but a genuine paradigm shift affecting the economy, work, education and the very organisation of society. Following the revolution brought about by mechanical labour, we are now entering the era of artificial intelligence, cognitive robotics and intelligent systems, which are destined to profoundly transform production processes and organisational models.
Businesses must not simply undergo this transformation; they must govern it. To do so, they need knowledge, continuous training, access to innovation and representative organisations capable of accompanying them along this path with concrete tools and a long-term vision.
For some time, I have advocated Generativity as a new vision of development for the 21st century: a form of representation that does not limit itself to protecting interests, but becomes capable of generating relationships, skills, innovation, qualified employment and shared value.
Today, competition is no longer played out exclusively among individual businesses. Territorial ecosystems compete: territories in which businesses, institutions, universities, the research system, financial institutions, workers and intermediary organisations are able to engage in dialogue and develop common strategies. Where fragmentation prevails, competitiveness is lost; where cooperation grows, development, investment and new opportunities emerge.
This Framework Agreement is intended to represent a first concrete step in this direction. It is an invitation to broaden dialogue among all representatives of the productive system, from agriculture to craftsmanship, from industry to commerce and services, so that Campania can face with greater cohesion the challenges of technological transition, internationalisation, export and the promotion of Made in Italy and the productive excellence of our territory."

Luciano Luongo

Coordinator of Casartigiani Campania

"Businesses need representation that is increasingly close to their needs and capable of building effective partnerships. This Agreement strengthens dialogue between our organisations and creates the conditions for developing shared services, projects and opportunities in the fields of training, innovation, access to finance, internationalisation and the promotion of Campania's craftsmanship and productive excellence. We believe that building networks is today one of the fundamental conditions for supporting business growth and the development of the territory."
