24 Ore Eventi

What 24 Ore Eventi does

24 Ore Eventi (legal entity: Il Sole 24 ORE Eventi S.r.l.) is the dedicated event-management subsidiary of Gruppo Il Sole 24 ORE, Italy's leading business newspaper and diversified media group. Headquartered in Milan at Viale Sarca 223, the company designs and produces business conferences, roadshows, large-scale events, and tailor-made projects for Italian professional audiences, with a small core team of 19 employees leveraging the parent's media distribution channels to scale efficiently. The company is wholly owned by the parent group and operates as its branded events arm rather than as an independent agency.

The core offering is built around four event formats — Live Event (physical only), Live Streaming 24 (broadcast with remote audiences), Interactive 24 (full digital streaming), and Live&Digital (hybrid physical + remote) — executed through a proprietary digital platform (24oreventi.ilsole24ore.com) and physical venues including the Auditorium Sole 24 Ore in Milan. Programming spans sustainability, energy, logistics, payments, finance, HR, healthcare, technology, Made in Italy, luxury, real estate, food, sport, and culture, with flagship events such as Italian Energy Summit, Made in Italy Summit, Logistics Day, Payments Summit, Innovation Days, and Italian Pet Summit, alongside institutional programs like Premio Impresa Sostenibile co-organized with Confindustria Piccola Industria, MASE, and Unioncamere.

The revenue model is anchored on three streams: tiered event sponsorship (Main Partner, Official Partner, Event Partner — exemplified by Accenture, KPMG, McKinsey, Capgemini, DHL, Fincantieri, Costa Crociere across multiple programs), bespoke tailormade B2B and B2C projects, and event participation (a mix of free and paid registration). The go-to-market is event-driven and distribution-led, with marketing delivered through ilsole24ore.com, email newsletters, Radio 24 cross-promotion, and partner-channel amplification. Reported scale metrics include 130+ events in the past year, 2,203 speakers, 300+ sponsors, and 790,000+ users reached.

Scale indicators4 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Direct peers

• Italian Exhibition Group (IEG): Italy's largest exhibition and conference organizer, operating major trade fair venues and B2B events. Directly comparable as a domestic Italian event and conference business serving professional audiences, though IEG focuses on physical trade fairs rather than business summits.
• Fiera Milano: Milan-headquartered exhibition center operator running major trade fairs and conferences. Comparable on geography and B2B event focus; differs in being primarily a venue operator rather than a content-driven conference organizer.

Others

• Cvent: Leading event management software platform providing registration, venue sourcing, and event marketing technology. Adjacent rather than directly competitive: 24 Ore Eventi organizes events while Cvent provides the technology layer that competitors and many enterprises use to run their own events.
• Eventbrite: Global self-service event ticketing and management platform primarily serving consumer and SMB events. Adjacent rather than directly comparable: serves different customer segments and lacks 24 Ore Eventi's premium B2B conference focus and brand-backed content.
• Il Sole 24 ORE (parent group): Parent conglomerate and Italy's leading business newspaper providing brand, content, and audience infrastructure to 24 Ore Eventi. Relevant as the upstream ecosystem provider rather than a competitor; included for context on the integrated media-and-events model.

Broad incumbents

• Informa Markets: Global division of Informa PLC operating exhibitions and conferences across industries including technology, healthcare, and finance. Comparable as a large-scale B2B conference and exhibition organizer with similar vertical coverage; differs materially in scale and geographic reach.
• GL Events: French-headquartered event services and venue operator with significant European event portfolio. Comparable as a full-service event organizer with venue and conference capabilities; differs in geographic footprint and ownership structure.
• RX Global (Reed Exhibitions): Global exhibitions organizer operating events across dozens of industries and geographies. Comparable as a B2B event business serving professional audiences; differs as RX operates at much greater scale internationally.

Regional players

• Bologna Fiere: Italian regional exhibition organizer based in Bologna, operating trade fairs across multiple industries. Comparable as an Italian B2B event business; serves a different regional geography and focuses on physical trade shows.
• Veronafiere: Italian exhibition organizer based in Verona hosting major trade fairs including Vinitaly and Marmomac. Comparable as a domestic Italian event business serving professional industries; differs in being venue-anchored with a trade fair orientation.
