As companies “we have done everything we could, we are strong and we have proved it beyond a reasonable doubt, but Italian companies are not invincible.” The reason? “We have a very interconnected economy: European low growth and energy prices they are also bringing Italy to a halt “, explained the head of Confindustria.
Referring to the nautical sector, he then pointed out: “Even in 2020 and 2021, despite the pandemic the Boat Show took place confirming that the sector did not fold. Today Italian boating is a leader in design, in adapting to new technologies. If other sectors proceeded like this we would be happy but unfortunately this is not the case. Today we undergo the rapid rise in energy pricesie raw materials and the consequences of the war in Ukraine. It’s about a perfect storm“. “A year ago, Bonomi recalled, I gave the first alarm on energy prices and asked for structural measures and assumptions of responsibility. At the next executive we will present requests. We hope to work together to remove anti-business judgment still present in this country “.
