Paolo Ghezzi on “Conti in tasca”: 15,000 Italian businesses in AI

24/10/2026 – Paolo Ghezzi, InfoCamere General Director, spoke on the "Conti in tasca" program on Giornale Radio, hosted by Sergio Luciano, to discuss the findings of a study on artificial intelligence conducted by InfoCamere in collaboration with the University of Padua.

The study identified around 15,000 Italian businesses that have made artificial intelligence central to their operations, generating a total production value of €21.5 billion in 2024.

“We set out to identify businesses using artificial intelligence in a genuinely transformative way, making it a core part of their business,” Ghezzi explained. These are mainly small and medium-sized enterprises, which can adopt new technologies quickly but still face challenges in finding specialist skills.

Artificial intelligence can boost productivity and improve business processes, provided companies have access to high-quality data and invest in training. As Ghezzi emphasised, the Italian Chamber of Commerce system is working to promote digital skills and help micro and small businesses seize these opportunities.
