Keynote address: Italy’s strategic re-positioning as an international M&A hub
Italy is emerging as a premier European M&A hub in 2026. Backed by a stable political environment and upgraded credit ratings, the market is successfully shifting from mega-deals to dynamic mid-market activity. Deal volumes are accelerating across banking, life sciences, energy infrastructure, and industrial resilience. Furthermore, narrow valuation gaps and clearer tariff-related pricing are setting the stage for a cross-border resurgence, though geopolitical wildcards could still delay execution. Ultimately, Italy’s unique mix of resilient family-owned businesses and robust banking assets continues to offer a compelling blend of tradition, innovation, new sophistication and long-term strategic opportunity.
