Businesses already have access to a wide range of resources and tools, but they are still not sufficiently understood and utilized. To overcome these critical issues and improve the operating environment for entrepreneurs and managers, Eurosportello Confesercenti, in collaboration with the Tuscany Region, is organizing a series of four meetings, each dedicated to a different aspect of available opportunities (tax breaks and other national measures, regional platforms and funding for Industry 4.0, community opportunities and networks) that are essential for an informed transition to the 4.0 model. The final meeting is dedicated to individual consultations on the various topics covered in the previous meetings, providing participants with a comprehensive overview of the measures and resources best suited to their specific needs.

The Tuscany Region has developed an integrated coordination structure for the public skills system to support businesses in the areas of technology transfer and innovation, technical and university training, and employment. cantieri40.it offers a comprehensive framework that helps businesses navigate the search for the best solutions or laboratories for testing the most technologically appropriate solutions to their innovation needs.

The Confesercenti Eurosportello is a member of the Enterprise Europe Network (www.een-italia.eu), which helps SMEs find technological, industrial, or commercial partners in EU countries and major non-EU markets. This network, comprising over 600 organizations, strengthens relationships, development opportunities, and knowledge among innovative companies.
