Italy is well positioned to partner with ASEAN Countries, given the relevance of its AD&S industry. More specifically, Italian players have a strong international vocation, showing high R&D intensity and adopting a systemic approach capable to generate positive effects at local level.

Agriculture is vital for economic growth and competitiveness of the ASEAN area. Yet, to fully benefit from opportunities, ASEAN countries have to overcome few structural challenges.

ASEAN Countries have identified the strengthening of connectivity as a key priority for the area. It is also a tool for successfully addressing the main challenges ahead. The underlying strategy is set out in the “Master Plan on ASEAN Connectivity 2025″.

Italian trade and economic relations with ASEAN Countries are steadily increasing, but are still below their potential. Major opportunities are opening up in several sectors and in particular in the high-tech and R&D-intensive industries.
