Milan, 24 June 2025 – The 2025 edition of the Italian Stock Market Opportunities Conference, organised by Intesa Sanpaolo’s IMI Corporate & Investment Banking Division, led by Mauro Micillo, has successfully concluded. Established in Milan in 2008, the initiative has grown into a landmark event for the European financial community, with this year’s programme unfolding across four key financial hubs: Milan, Paris, Lugano and Madrid.

The conference aims to give Italian mid- and small-cap companies a direct platform to present their financial results, development strategies and future outlook to international institutional investors. The 2025 edition brought together 31 listed Italian companies in more than 270 one-to-one and group meetings with 110 equity institutional investors, underscoring the rising global appetite for Italy’s entrepreneurial excellence, even within the mid- and small-cap segment.

Andrea Mayr, Head of Client Coverage & Advisory at Intesa Sanpaolo’s IMI CIB Division, commented: “With the Italian Stock Market Opportunities Conference, we continue to support the internationalisation of Italian companies by facilitating concrete dialogue with institutional investors. The growing participation and expansion into new financial markets bear witness to the interest and confidence in our entrepreneurial ecosystem, made up of resilient, innovative companies with a strong growth orientation. This event is part of IMI CIB’s broader initiatives to accelerate the meeting of international capital and Italian businesses and, in collaboration with the Banca dei Territori Division, to offer companies a comprehensive suite of services—from financial advisory to banking and private credit, as well as access to public capital markets.”

The project was made possible by the close synergy between Intesa Sanpaolo’s Equity Research and Corporate Broking Research teams and the IMI CIB Division’s Equity Sales unit, which supported participating companies throughout the four legs of the conference.

The Italian Stock Market Opportunities Conference forms part of Intesa Sanpaolo’s broader commitment, outlined in its 2022–2025 Business Plan, to bolster corporate support services and enhance advisory activities to foster the growth and internationalisation of Italian enterprises.
