Intesa Sanpaolo participated in Futura Expo 2023 – an event dedicated to sustainable innovation and sustainable business growth – with meetings and speeches that focused on topics such as:

regenerative economy
sustainable innovation
reducing consumption
energy transition

Intesa Sanpaolo emphasised that finance and the sustainable transition represent a competitive advantage and a development opportunity for Italian companies, for long-term growth.

In addition, the theme of the circular economy of strategies for positive impact growth was explored, with a focus on the fashion, textile and packaging sectors.

Through its participation in Futura Economia per l'Ambiente, Intesa Sanpaolo renews its partnership with the Brescia Chamber of Commerce, which over time has given rise to agreements and initiatives to support and stimulate the development of local companies, their growth in terms of size and internationalisation and innovation processes.

This is the backdrop to the ESG Workshop, an initiative launched in both Brescia and Bergamo in agreement with the Chambers of Commerce, dedicated to local SMEs interested in improving their sustainability profiles.

Intesa Sanpaolo supports the real economy

To contribute actively to the country's economic recovery in close correlation with the objectives of the NRRP, the Intesa Sanpaolo Group has made available €410 billion, of which 120 for SMEs and, to date, has supported more than 1,000 companies based in Lombardy in winning NRRP tenders.

This also includes the €76 billion made available at the national level through the Motore Italia Transizione Energetica programme, designed to encourage investments by businesses in renewable energy sources and accelerate the energy and sustainable energy transition, for example through Renewable Energy Communities (RECs).

In addition, Intesa Sanpaolo has already disbursed more than €6 billion of loans to its SME customers in pursuit of ESG and circular economy objectives, and it will continue to support the economy with instruments and financing targeting at high-impact objectives.
