Paolo Ghezzi on "Conti in tasca": "700 Million Euros Lost to Bureaucracy"

16/05/2026 – Paolo Ghezzi, InfoCamere General Director, spoke on the "Conti in tasca" program on Giornale Radio, hosted by Sergio Luciano, commenting on PromoPa Foundation data regarding bureaucracy costs for Italian businesses.

"We conducted a study on time businesses waste annually self-certifying their data: 10 certifications weigh approximately 700 million euros annually", states Ghezzi. The General Director illustrated how the chamber system developed the Impresa Italia app, already adopted by 3.5 million entrepreneurs out of 5 million total businesses: "With this app we brought company records, balance sheets and compliance documents to smartphones at zero cost. Now, through PDND (National Digital Data Platform), we want to bring these 10 certifications from other administrations with one click". Ghezzi emphasized the Business Register's value, celebrating 30 years: "It's perhaps Europe's best register, born digital since 1995. With one click we can know the country's production value, a street's or sector's turnover. Essential data for understanding the economy in real-time".

On innovation, InfoCamere counts 1,000 people, all technological, with data centers in Padua and Bologna: "We're implementing artificial intelligence while guaranteeing certified data sovereignty. We can predict which business will be born next and what it will do".
