Selling a Business in Italy

Italy's mid-market is driven by family business succession, cross-border strategic acquisition of Italian industrial brands, and a growing private equity presence. Milan is the country's commercial and financial centre; manufacturing, fashion, food and beverage, and industrial automation are the dominant sectors. Italian transaction dynamics often involve complex family shareholder structures that require careful management.
