BALANCE, ECONOMY AND EUROPE, OUR IDEAS FOR ITALY: THE CEPI, AGROCEPI AND ACLI TERRA FORUM OPENS TO NEW SYNERGIES. FENAPI GROUP ALSO PARTICIPATES IN THE DISCUSSION
Tuesday 23 June 2026, from 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM, the Cavour Congress Centre in Rome (via Cavour no. 50/A) will host the public forum “Our ideas for Italy”. The event, jointly promoted by CEPI European Association of Small Businesses, Agrocepi (National Food Federation) and Acli Terra (Agricultural Professional Association), is founded with the aim of bringing together institutions, social partners and the productive world to build a concrete and pragmatic vision for the country's future.
The official participation is announced today, further enriching the network of collaborations for this important event, of Fenapi Group. The Group's presence will further broaden the dialogue between representative organisations and the Italian productive system, strengthening the exchange of ideas and proposals for national and business growth.
The debate will be structured around three keywords, strongly symbolic and central to the country system: Balance, Economy and Europe, with a programmatic focus on competitive, sustainable and innovative agriculture and production fabric.
Corrado Martinangelo, National President of Agrocepi, highlighted the strategic value of the initiative:
“The public forum on June 23rd is of strategic importance as it best expresses the value of networking. Networking between two organisations, networking between Parliament and Government, and a network of ideas for Italy. In this context, our project ‘Italy for the productive system’ will be structured around three keywords: Balance, Economy, Europe. A network of opportunities for a new vision of growth for our country.
Nicola Tavoletta, National President of Acli Terra, emphasised the need for a return to a politics of values:
“Acli Terra believes that political debate is necessary concerning future developments, but it must absolutely be a debate where pragmatism is central. Not in relation to ideologies and ideals that are inspirational, despite what current politics might say, but in relation to vested interests that have become the references for parties post-1992. Let's return to politics of values, ideals, and even ideologies, because they are the only systems that promote pragmatism.
