MILAN (ITALPRESS) – For the thirteenth year in a row, Deloitte’s network in Italy recorded revenue growth, which this year (fiscal year ending May 31, 2024) exceeded 1.5 billion euros, marking a +15% increase over the previous fiscal year. Deloitte Italy’s workforce, which now numbers more than 13,000 people, also recorded a +10% increase over last fiscal year. Specifically, among new hires, 57% are men and 43% women, with a very high percentage of under-30s at 78.2%. 42% of new hires are Millennials (born between 1983 and 1994), while 55.2% belong to GenZ (born between 1995 and 2005). This number of young talent is set to grow, with about 3,500 new hires expected by May 2025. “In a global context that is increasingly competitive and evolving very rapidly on the technology front, our network continues to grow,” says Fabio Pompei, Ceo of Deloitte Italy. “In recent years we have faced complex challenges and this makes us even more proud of the results achieved thanks to the extraordinary work of our people. But we are not stopping here: we want to continue to grow and to foster a path of sustainable and inclusive growth of the entire country system, characterized by the double green and digital transition – crucial issues on which Deloitte is at the forefront with many initiatives, among which I like to highlight the role of sole Knowledge Partner of B7 and W7. The opening of three new offices in Italy in 2024, as well as investments in the new Centre of Excellence dedicated to GenAI, testify to how the Italian market is increasingly strategic in Deloitte’s global plans. We want to continue to return value to the territory, generating a positive impact in the long term for client companies, institutions, our people and the entire community of stakeholders – in line with the commitment made with the transition to a Benefit Company.” Over the past fiscal year, the Deloitte network invested significantly in Italy, equipping itself with new offices at the forefront of technological innovation, environmental sustainability and well-being. January saw the inauguration of new offices in Rome at 89 Via Vittorio Veneto, in a historic building in the heart of the city, formerly the headquarters of Iri and then Fintecna. The new location, a building with triple certification for well-being and environmental sustainability, brought together the more than 2,600 people operating on the capital in a single headquarters. Instead, the move of the more than 6,000 people in Milan began in September to the new headquarters at 28 Via Santa Sofia, in one of the first buildings in Italy with zero emissions and equipped with more than 1,000 square meters of green areas. In June 2024, on the other hand, Bari saw the opening of the first batch of NextHub’s new headquarters at the Fiera del Levante: located at Lungomare Starita 4, the Apulian office will reach full capacity – with a total of 1,200 people – starting in October. The Naples office, on the other hand, which employs more than 600 professionals, is confirmed as the network’s main hub dedicated to training paths with the Lumina Academy, a project aimed at placing recent graduates and undergraduates from humanities faculties in Deloitte, and the Digita Academy, a training path developed together with the Federico II University and dedicated to skills for digital transformation. Added to these activities is the decision to focus decisively on Artificial Intelligence, with the creation of a Centre of Excellence dedicated to GenAI, created to develop the skills and know-how needed to accompany companies in this epochal transformation. With a view to further strengthening its commitment on this front, more than 500 hires in GenAI/Artificial Intelligence are planned for Deloitte Italy over the next three years. Among the projects that have characterized the last fiscal year is Deloitte’s role as the sole Knowledge Partner of the B7 Italy 2024 chaired by Confindustria, which is called to identify and address the priorities of the global economic agenda for the G7 countries by addressing issues such as innovation, digital and ecological transition, and trade. Deloitte is also the sole private sector Knowledge Partner and main sponsor of Women 7 Italy 2024, the G7 Equal Opportunities G7 of civil society and international nonprofit organizations. In addition, the Holy See’s Dicastery for Evangelization, which is responsible for the implementation of the upcoming Ordinary Jubilee 2025, has appointed Deloitte as Strategic Advisor for the period May 2023-March 2026. Instead, in the world of sports Deloitte is a Partner of Fondazione Milano Cortina 2026 in view of the Olympic and Paralympic Games and has contributed to the Dual Career program to support the training of student-athletes together with CONI and CIP. In addition, Deloitte promoted a communication campaign with Sofia Goggia on the values of environmental sustainability. Finally, together with the Deloitte Foundation, the network created the Deloitte Photo Grant, the richest international photography competition promoted in Italy. The first edition of the award was won by Iranian photographer Newsha Tavakolian, while for the second one Davide Monteleone was awarded with the photo project “Critical Minerals – Geography of Energy.”
