Italy is "back on track" and aims to consolidate its economy through investments in skills, innovation, and production continuity. This is the message sent by Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni to Federmanager on the occasion of the 80th anniversary of the association of industrial executives, in a speech that looks to the country’s economic future with a perspective of stability and modernization. Meloni described human capital as Italy's "most precious asset": a competitive component that combines know-how, creativity, and industrial identity. "Made in Italy is a unique synthesis of quality, tradition, and innovation", the prime minister wrote, emphasizing the importance of investing in ongoing training and skill transmission across generations, particularly in small and medium-sized businesses, the backbone of the national economy. On the macroeconomic front, Meloni supported the government's policy, which seeks to maintain financial stability and create "a favorable environment for those who generate wealth and employment". According to the prime minister, the primary indicators show how "Italy is resilient and is able to overcome challenges better than other European nations". She clarified that the 2026 budget law will maintain the same approach as previous ones, with measures that are intended to encourage investment and innovation: from the tax credit for the Single SEZ (Special Economic Zone) to the reintroduction of super and hyper depreciation, along with refinancing of the Nuova Sabatini program and the suspension of the plastic and sugar taxes.
