India as a Double Growth Engine: Webinar with Il Sole 24 Ore

India is no longer just a high-potential emerging market. In 2026, it represents a dual growth engine For Italian businesses: on the one hand Strongly expanding domestic market, on the other hand, a Strategic industrial platform to serve Asia and diversify global supply chains. 

Companies that focus solely on exports risk losing competitiveness in terms of price, access to public tenders, and local perception. At the same time, those considering a production presence without a clear commercial strategy risk turning the investment into a simple cost-containment operation. 

The real competitive advantage comes from the integration between Sales and manufacturing, combining commercial presence, local assembly, Indian sourcing, and a regional platform for ASEAN and the Middle East. 

As the 24ORE Partners, we organized in collaboration with The Sun 24ORE, a webinar Dedicated to entrepreneurs, CFOs, export managers, tax advisors, and legal professionals who want to understand how to transform India from a mere destination market into a strategic platform for regional growth.
