1 • I contratti di rete: dinamiche recenti e profili emergenti
abstract
In 2023, the softening of price dynamics and the slowdown in the economic cycle seem not to have affected entrepreneurs’ propensity to activate integration initiatives and collaborative strategies through network contracts. At the same time, member companies have shown good resilience, maintaining a collaborative and solidaristic spirit and leveraging the competitive advantages of networking. At a time of new uncertainty for the economic system, initiatives of positive collaboration and integration between companies, preferably of different sizes and sectors, could ensure extremely useful implications for preserving segments of strategic supply chains for Italy’s productive system.
