The first 20 years

The origins (1974-1994)

Forty years ago the Padua Chambers of Commerce started our adventure by giving a visionary interpretation to its role as custodian of the personal details and administrative information for businesses in the province.

For Mario Volpato the newly-elected chairman, collecting and keeping all that data in paper form - as had been done since the middle ages and the times of the merchant communities, the “universitas mercatorum” - was no longer sufficient to guarantee market efficiency and to stimulate economic development.

Early information technology was opening new horizons in rapid, mass data processing. It was finally possible to envisage intelligent management of administrative information regarding the lives of businesses, transforming that information into data that could be processed and used in new ways by everybody
The idea of enhancing the value of data provided by businesses was born, with the data being returned to the market and to the businesses themselves as information that could be used to increase competitiveness and plan development.
The seed of efficiency was sown in Chamber of Commerce organisation, a new foundation on which to build a clear and advantageous agreement between businesses and the Public Administration.
Since then, we have helped write important chapters in the history of innovation in our country. The heirs to a vision of the future that makes us respond to the needs of today, while imagining the solutions of tomorrow.

The second 20 years

The second 20 years

A new beginning (1995-2015)

During the past twenty years we have built up an avant garde business and organisational point of excellence that lies, on our country's development map, at the crossroads between enterprise, public administration and the market.
At the start of the 'Nineties, acceleration of global competition and the challenges to bring Italy into the modern world changed the balance of this scenario. With the 1993 Reform law, the Chambers of Commerce changed their appearance, and their technological heart was also renewed.
From Cerved came InfoCamere, which took up the challenge of creating the Business Register. Envisaged by the Italian Civil Code since 1942 but never implemented previously, the result was finally achieved in just two years, one years ahead of schedule: the first example in Europe of a fully telematic public business register came into being.
This challenge was followed by others, those of 'digital signature', 'certified e-mail', 'single notice' (...).
Through InfoCamere, digital intermediate technology and services became available on a day-to-day basis for the business and professional community, contaminating the working habits of thousands of Italians and stimulating innovation processes in the public administration.

 

 

Today, around the Business Register, we have built up services that help the Chambers of Commerce to:

  • simplify the processes between businesses and the Public Administration, encouraging the growth of a widespread digital culture in businesses and professions
  • help businesses to open, grow and become competitive
  • guarantee everyone has access to up-to-date, official and reliable information on the economy and businesses

 

It is thanks also to this ongoing commitment to investing in technology that the Chambers of Commerce have today become the "digital home" of businesses. A home that is open to everybody, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Innovation is Growth

Great changes need simplicity to take place. Simple as a tree, but solid as its roots. Like trees, our vocation is growth: the growth of our organisation, of the Chamber of Commerce System of which we form a part and which we animate, of businesses and of the Country. To feed this, we look at change as an opportunity to acquire knowledge, to innovate and to renew ourselves.

La nostra vision

Our future today

Thinking outside the box, leaving pre-formed and "copy-and-paste" strategies behind to experiment with new ways of thinking and new paradigms of action, in a constant synergism between hard and soft skill: this is the logic of continuous innovation, the original vision behind InfoCamere.
Because the future is creativity and organisation, genius and system, vision and sharing.
Taking part in this process means implementing the principle of simplification, distributing easy-to-use tools so that everybody can live in the age of access.
