00:00Founded in 1901, Unione Camere is the public entity that unites and represents institutionally the Italian Chamber System.
00:13Thanks to its central role, it carries out and manages the services and activities of the Chamber of Commerce and the Economic Categories,
00:21coordinating the initiatives of the system through directives and addresses to the bodies that are part of it.
00:27The Italian Chamber Assembly met in Rome for the election of the President and the new members of the body.
00:35Andrea Prete, who will lead Unione Camere in the next Triennium, confirmed the unanimity of the Presidents of the Chamber of Commerce.
00:44We have a problem that concerns the labor market, on which the Chamber System is strongly committed.
00:50There is a gap in skills, there are no skills that the companies want.
00:55We are in a 1-2 ratio as an average, but if we talk about a specialized worker or an engineering graduate,
01:03we come to the 70% that is not found.
01:05We will make the ITS Academy grow, because the ITS is a solution for the problem,
01:12for what concerns the average skills, and obviously we must favor STEM degrees.
01:18There is a network of young people who do not study and do not work,
01:23which in my opinion must be motivated, because this country needs to grow.
01:27We cannot risk, even with the demographic decline, to have a drop in the GDP,
01:32because it is indisputable that if people do not work, we will have a drop in the GDP in the future.
01:37I think that a plan of immigration, obviously regular, with training before arriving in Italy,
01:45can be activated. We, as the Chamber System, also have the network of Italian Chamber of Commerce abroad,
01:51and on this topic, in my opinion, we must attract, especially in some countries,
01:56where there are Italian communities, people who want to return to work in Italy.
02:02The Minister for Business, the Made in Italy, Alfonso Urso, also presents at the Assembly,
02:07which underlined the importance of relations with the PMI.
02:10We have always believed in the Italian system, made up of small, medium and micro businesses,
02:17which are a productive model, and certainly not an anomaly.
02:21It is made up of social and productive representation of an economic democracy
02:26of which we are proud, with its network of Chamber of Commerce,
02:32which plays a fundamental role of connection on the territory and assistance,
02:37and with its business and trade representatives.
02:41For this reason, from the beginning, we have valued both the role of small and medium enterprises,
02:47and soon we will present in the Council of Ministers the first annual law on small and medium enterprises,
02:54on artisanal enterprises, and the role of the Chambers of Commerce,
02:58which we believe is fundamental to protect and enhance the Italian model,
03:04which is also a social model, not just a productive one.
