"Unindustria's Small Industry is a strong, articulated component, rooted in all territories of Lazio. It is a network of companies, people and associative responsibilities that every day contributes to the growth of our production system,' Cristiano Dionisi stressed in his speech. 'SMEs are not simply a size category. They are the backbone of our economic system. They are the productive garrison of the territories,' he emphasised.

"Lazio,' remarked Dionisi, 'needs stronger, more structured SMEs, more connected to supply chains, more capable of investing, innovating, competing, and growing dimensionally. This is why we have focused our work on a few fundamental axes: credit and finance, capital strengthening, supply chains and business networks, training, sustainability, innovation, artificial intelligence, energy, the economy of the sea, relations with the new generations, and associative culture. The second two-year period, the one ahead of us, will have to consolidate this approach. We will have to continue working on the dimensional growth of SMEs, managerialisation, access to more advanced financial instruments, human capital, skills, simplification, infrastructure and energy competitiveness'.
