Spreading the “culture” of Business Networks

What is the culture of Business Networks?

Network contracts are a relatively new regulatory tool, introduced by Law 33/2009, which establishes the possibility for multiple companies to jointly carry out one or more economic activities. The events that have reshaped the international economic landscape, including the crisis and the emergence of new countries in the global context, therefore necessitate a clear stance from companies, institutions, and all those involved in the business internationalization process. Italian companies must thus face new challenges and problems, which can only be addressed with new commercial and production strategies.

Considering the particular structure of Italian entrepreneurship, characterized by a myriad of SMEs that are unable to penetrate foreign markets on their own, the answer is represented by merger, union, aggregation, creation of consortia, in a word, the creation of Business Networks.

Octagona thus presents itself as an important player not only in supporting companies wishing to implement an internationalization process, but also in promoting and contributing to the growth of the “culture” of Business Networks, which companies must identify as a necessary tool to respond to today's production, commercial, economic, and entrepreneurial needs. Octagona intends to raise awareness among the business community on the topic of Business Networks by undertaking useful initiatives, including the design of seminars to promote aggregation among companies.
