Marketing a Business in Italy

The transition of a business to international operations requires a careful planning of costs, procedures and resources. Despite appearances, one of te very first moves is actually cultural in the sense that it is necessary to assess your product or services fit the inclinations and idiosyncrasies of a nation. A company needs to ‘culturalise’ their business if they want to achieve results in the country they are planning to expand. At this stage effective marketing means understanding the population of a country, their social approach to products and services, what is considered convincing and how to touch their sensibility and practices in order to develop a feeling of necessity around your products and services.

These considerations are particularly true for a country like Italy. Over 60 millions of educated, well-informed and discerning citizens. Italy is the eighth economic power in the world (International Monetary Fund data) and if the country boasts a high public debt, just as much true that private debt is extremely low, Italians are famous for the consistency of private savings and home property. Italy, all considered, is a stable country. Despite the criticism at its volatile politics and legislation, the country is fundamental for the European Union being its third biggest economic contributor after Germany and France and before all the other EU countries. Additionally, Italy is pacing forward within the rules and boundaries set by the European Union. While the Eu strongly needs Italy, the country strongly adheres to the EU as it demonstrated in all its history (don’t forget Italy is one of the few founding partners of the EU). The result is a country moving towards the future yes slowly but yes also constantly.

The Italian population is all considered rich, has property and buys products and services. However they are very discerning and have a particular approach and sensitivity that requires an appropriate marketing.

Marketing your business in Italy is difficult but the results if you succeed are worth the work and promising . Italy may grow and become more heterogeneous, but the foundations of its culture rarely budges for anything: their sensitivity, practices, traditions, humour, discourses, tastes are essentially unchanging and stubbornly unaccommodating. Therefore, the identity of your product or service needs to seamlessly fashion itself upon a nation.

Don’t expect your marketing strategy will apply just as well in Italy. Don’t expect translation will simply work. Italy is a strong western democracy, it looks favourably and with respect towards english-speaking countries, but they will not receive positively your products and services unless you play their rules and you talk their language. Understanding this can make or break your business.

These considerations are true also for those businesses that sell themselves out of necessity or innovation. Yes, they will find a vast market in Italy and certainly succeed but so many times we’ve seen – including famous brands – enormous margins of improvement lost ore gone unseen only because of an inappropriate marketing and communication.

The power of images and even more so of video is enormous in Italy, after all this is the country that invented the use of images and colours, dating back to the Roman Empire and all the way up to Giotto in the 1300’s and Fellini in the 1900’s.

Manufacturers in niche sectors often need to include a careful video production planning in their marketing strategy

Manufacturers in niche sectors often have low awareness and client volumes around their products. They also must deal with the challenges of localising technical content accurately, and creating engaging and compelling content that informs, educates and persuades different audiences in different countries.
The manufacturing sector has double digit opportunities for growth across international markets but needs a carefully crafted video communication and a seamless execution to achieve its goals.
Too often we see the necessity for this sector to understand and develop an appropriate video communication and too often we see that the few who take this road eventually lead the market.

When engineering becomes art. In the video created by DMA international for Expo Dubai 2020, the all-Italian engineering megaproject for the United Arab Emirates pavilion is presented.

The video production company DMA International created the stunning video presentation of the UAE pavilion at Expo 2020 Dubai. Through a series of interviews, the video presents the all-Italian innovative technological work created by Duplomatic MS (www.duplomatic.com).

The central pavilion of Expo 2020 Dubai is an engineering masterpiece: it will welcome over 20 million visitors in the semester of the Universal Exposition under a roof of several tons that opens like the wings of a falcon.
The design of the futuristic pavilion was entrusted to the famous Calatrava architecture studio, while the technical implementation was entrusted to the Italian group Duplomatic MS.

“The proposed design of the UAE Pavilion captures the story we want to tell the world about our nation,” said UAE Minister of State and National Media Council Chairman H.E. Dr Sultan Ahmed Al Jaber. 

In the United Arab Emirates, falconry has been practiced since ancient times, a hunting custom recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. And the architect Santiago Calatrava took inspiration from the falcon to create a complex roof made of different pieces capable of hydraulically opening to resemble the wings of a falcon taking flight.

To move this complex structure weighing several tons, there is an advanced hydraulic system controlled by an equally innovative electronic system, developed by the Italian company Duplomatic MS.

“The pavilion designed by Santiago Calatrava,” explains Paolo Leuttenegger, General Manager of Duoplomatic MS, “is a work of art and the first major difficulty is represented by the translation of aesthetic and experiential requirements into technical and engineering requirements. The Expo project represents an important challenge for the growth of our group, both from a technical, logistical and organisational point of view. The development of the wing operating system of the UAE pavilion is unique in the world.”

The solution developed by Duplomatic MS consists of a power plant with an installed power of approximately 1 MW, 2 and a half Km of pressure pipes that “float” on the roof structure, thus making the system compatible with thermal expansion phenomena linked to temperature variations and reducing the transmission of vibrations to a minimum, 46 hydraulic cylinders positioned on the roof and responsible for opening the 28 wings in composite material and about 2000 control points that include valves of all kinds and sensors. To control all this, about 25 Km of wiring and 17 electrical panels are needed. The result is a fluid, harmonious, synchronised movement, that doesn’t disturb the aesthetics of the work.

The video made by DMA International focuses on the details of this initiative.
