The call “Open future delle imprese italiane” (Open Future of Italian Enterprises), promoted by Confindustria and Matera 2019, will allow 50 enterprises to be the protagonists during our extraordinary year.

In 2019 Matera and the whole Basilicata region will be a big laboratory of ideas in which Confindustria enterprises could also play a key role.

The innovative excellence of those selected from the whole Italian territory operate in different sectors ranging from culture to creativity, from tourism to ICT and from engineering to chemical-pharmaceutical sectors. Each of these enterprises will present themselves in an excellent exhibition centre for one week and will have the chance to talk about their success stories to visitors and media and cultural operators from all over the world - thereby enhancing projects and initiatives related to development, culture and the territory alike.

This initiative is an opportunity for growth and dialogue between culture and enterprise that will start in Matera and last well after 2019.
