Here are all the questions we need to ask ourselves to understand if the Italian entrepreneurial fabric is adequate and ready to seize the <strong>opportunities of the future<\/strong>. Unfortunately, the answer is no. Suffice it to say that in <strong>2021 about 80% of companies<\/strong> with at least 10 employees are still at a low or very low level of <strong>ICT<\/strong> adoption and there are still too few small and medium-sized enterprises capable of selling online.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<div class=\"et_pb_module et_pb_cta_348 et_pb_promo  et_pb_text_align_center et_pb_bg_layout_light\">\n<div class=\"et_pb_promo_description et_multi_view_hidden\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"et_pb_button_wrapper\"><a class=\"et_pb_button et_pb_promo_button\" href=\"https:\/\/temp_new.vmenginelab.com\/2021\/12\/21\/quali-sono-le-tecnologie-strategiche-del-2022-cosi-il-cloud-computing-trascina-la-crescita\/\" target=\"_blank\">What are the strategic technologies of 2022?
