Against the current backdrop of fragmented value chains and changing trade and logistics routes, the Export Plan also serves as a strategic tool to strengthen security of supply, an increasingly pressing need for an economy such as Italy\u2019s, which relies on processing imported raw materials into finished products.<\/p>\n<p>The strategy reflects strong, structured cooperation with Italy\u2019s national business support agencies \u2014 the Italian Trade Agency (ITA), CDP, SIMEST and SACE \u2014 and the chamber of commerce network. It draws on practical, operational tools designed to seize emerging opportunities in Latin America, Asia, Africa, the Balkans and the Arabian Peninsula, and to strengthen Italy\u2019s presence in mature markets with strong demand for Made in Italy products.<\/p>\n<p>The Plan is a dynamic, flexible instrument, continually updated and implemented in close coordination with the diplomatic and consular network. Through its extensive network of Embassies, Consulates, Permanent Missions and Italian Cultural Institutes, working alongside ITA offices abroad, this network provides a platform to support businesses facing the challenges of international markets.<\/p>\n<p>To achieve its objectives, the Export Action Plan provides for a range of actions and measures, including:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>business missions led by political representatives or technical experts;<\/li>\n<li>roundtables and economic partnership initiatives;<\/li>\n<li>expanded participation in trade fairs and agreements with international retail chains and digital platforms;<\/li>\n<li>financial support for exports through dedicated SIMEST measures;<\/li>\n<li>SACE\u2019s geographically targeted Push Strategies and insurance services;<\/li>\n<li>the opening of new branches and offices of Italy\u2019s national business support agencies in strategic markets.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>PIANO-EXPORT.GOV.IT<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Piano-Export.gov.it is the official public portal for the Export Action Plan: a single platform ensuring guidance, explaining country strategies and providing easy access to services offered by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Italian Trade Agency, CDP, SIMEST, SACE, the Chambers of Commerce and Italy\u2019s regional authorities.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.esteri.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Brochure_PIANO-EXPORT.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"img-fluid alignnone wp-image-201430 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.esteri.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Piano-export-1024x709.jpg\" alt=\"Piano export\" width=\"640\" height=\"443\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.esteri.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Piano-export-1024x709.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.esteri.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Piano-export-300x208.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.esteri.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Piano-export-768x532.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.esteri.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Piano-export.jpg 1222w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>DIPLOMACY FOR GROWTH GUIDES: OPPORTUNITIES IN FOREIGN MARKETS<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The portal includes a section dedicated to the <a href=\"https:\/\/piano-export.gov.it\/diplomazia-della-crescita\">\u201cDiplomacy for Growth\u201d guides<\/a> produced by Italian Embassies abroad.
