We are proud to inform you that, starting today, ICAM is a member of ELITE, the international program of the Italian Stock Exchanges.
ELITE is the international program of the Italian Stock Exchange founded in 2012 in collaboration with Confindustria in leva order to help SMEs preparing and structuring their next stage of growth, through the access to long term financing opportunities. Thanks to the partnership with Confindustria, the ELITE Desks have been activated across the country, through which more than half of the companies entering in ELITE have today been selected.

ELITE gives them access to numerous funding opportunities, improving their visibility and attractiveness and putting them in contact with potential investors, as well as supporting management in their cultural and organizational change.

Luca PeyranoCEO and General Manager of ELITE says: “Today, 50 ambitious companies are starting their career in ELITE, joining an increasingly dynamic and high quality international community. Three aspects can easily summarize the impact that ELITE has been able to generate in Italy in recent years: the increase in size of ELITE companies, the increase in their profitability and the increase in employment, generated by companies in terms of number of employees. We are sure that access to new forms of funding is an important lever to improve the competitiveness of Italian companies at a global level. Moreover we believe that strong managerial skills and a clear vision are essential to create more and more value. ELITE companies play a key role in achieving this goal with an important number of extraordinary finance operations supporting growth for a value of over 7 billion euro “.

Participation in the ELITE project represents an important step into the strategic growth plan of ICAM” says Roberto Bianco, ICAM CEO & President, adding “ELITE is a unique opportunity to increase our visibility in the international financial and industrial community, in order to know other excellent companies. A comparison and connecting moment that can certainly contribute to our organizational and managerial development.”
