InfoCamere

InfoCamere, the IT company for the Italian Chambers of Commerce, is the ideal technological structure for supporting the Chamber system in managing its information stores and providing its services. By devising and developing the most up-to-date and innovative IT solutions, it unites the Chambers of Commerce on a daily basis, across a network also accessible to all involved in the Italian productive system: businesses, members of the public, Public Authorities, business associations, professional bodies and anyone involved with economic data. InfoCamere manages the high-speed and high-security communication network interconnecting the nerve centres of the Chamber system. By creating a fully paper-free environment, the network assists the Chamber system with managing the complex administrative procedures associated with business life. Its databases are quick and easy to access, and available to all. One of the most significant contributions of InfoCamere for the Chambers of Commerce has been the electronic business register Registro Imprese telematico, an economic registry and legal disclosure instrument for businesses. It was established in computerised format from its inception in 1993, and this distinctive feature made it completely unique across Europe. The company is therefore involved in activities ranging from managing the data held by the Chambers (thanks in particular to the portal registroimprese.it, which is truly the search engine for the national economy sector), to the computerisation and simplification of the services provided to businesses by the Chambers themselves, especially in their dealings with the Public Authorities (for example, through the ComUnica software, the management of the impresainungiorno.gov.it portal and the procedures associated with the SUAP - Sportello Unico Attività Produttive).
