Italian Business

I would prepare myself for doing business in Italy by first learning about their culture, ethics, religion and official language. In business, communication is important so I would need to know how to speak to them in Italian. The Italian people value their history and their monuments. The Vatican is in Rome Italy, so many Italians have a strong Catholic belief. I would need to take all this into consideration if I was conducting business there. Italy is experiencing an economic crisis at this point and is in debt so I would need to make careful business choices. Italy has a high cost of living so I need to make sure that I am financially stable if I am going to live or spend an extended amount of time in Italy. In my opinion, Italy is a difficult place to do International Business.
