The Artificial Intelligence (AI) market in Italy is booming. In 2023, it reached a value of €760 million, growing by 52% compared to the previous year, and is projected to soar to €2.5 billion by 2027. However, while companies acknowledge AI’s potential, many struggle to implement it effectively. According to a recent study by the Politecnico di Milano, the primary obstacle is the lack of internal skills: 60% of businesses report not having dedicated roles to lead digital transformation.

This challenge is compounded by the mismatch between demand and supply of workers with advanced digital expertise. Confartigianato highlights the need for approximately 699,000 specialists in technologies such as AI, cloud computing, and data analytics, with more than half of these roles deemed hard to fill. The issue is especially acute in regions like Trentino-Alto Adige, where 65.8% of required profiles are difficult to find.

Faced with these challenges, many companies remain stuck in the prototype phase with their AI solutions, unable to translate these technologies into tangible benefits. Despite strong interest in improving processes and services, there is a clear need for tools that simplify technical complexity and democratize AI adoption.
