ITALIAN TRADE AGENCY

The Italian Trade Agency (I.C.E. in Italian) is a public body with the task of promoting, facilitating and developing Italian commercial trade with other countries in the world, supporting the internationalization of Italian firms and their consolidation in foreign markets. I.C.E. activities are financed by public funds with the Ministry of Economic Development providing both directives and supervision, and, to a lesser extent, by the same companies that use its promotional services in terms of advice, information and assistance.

ICE provides information, support and advice to Italian and foreign companies.

In addition to its Rome headquarters, ICE operates worldwide from a large network of Trade Promotion Offices linked to Italian Embassies and Consulates and working closely with local authorities and businesses.
