The Italian Chamber of Commerce in Canada- West is promoting for this year, 2020, the second edition of the mentoring project “Up for IT” developed with Unioncamere and Assocamerestero. This project takes part in the bigger international program “Chamber Mentoring for International Growth”, in which a network of chambers of commerce widespread around the world will participate.

The main goal of the project “Up for IT” is building a network between Italian managers and entrepreneurs living abroad that, as mentors, they are willing to share their expertise and knowledge with Italian companies (mentee) that are interested in engaging in a digital disruption aimed to facilitate their entry in foreign markets. The digital transformation will happen through the introduction of new technologies that will apply to all the internal processes, from the planning to the production, from marketing to sales.
