Eurofork S.p.A., a company specializing in the production of automated handling systems, has joined ELITE, the international program of the London Stock Exchange Group, launched by Borsa Italiana in 2012 and dedicated to high-growth potential companies.
Eurofork’s entry into the ELITE international community took place on June 6, 2019, alongside other outstanding Italian companies. This achievement was made possible thanks to a strategic partnership with Intesa Sanpaolo, through Mediocredito Italiano – the Group’s structure dedicated to SMEs – as part of a long-standing collaboration with Confindustria, which has been supporting the Italian economy for years through various initiatives and tools.
The innovative ELITE program represents a new way of supporting companies, aiming to accelerate their international growth by creating opportunities and value through access to an exclusive Lounge, with training and tutoring services for businesses seeking to embark on a path of organizational and managerial development.
To date, ELITE has reached 1,177 companies, 734 of which are Italian. The selected businesses come from various sectors, including automotive, industry, food, and design.
Eurofork S.p.A., the first company from the Pinerolo area to access this platform, is proud to have achieved this milestone after being named a finalist for the 2018 Italian Mechatronics Award and completing its transformation into a joint-stock company within the past year.
Furthermore, participation in this program will allow Eurofork to acquire new expertise and gain access to new capital to finance its growth at both national and international levels. This is particularly relevant as the company prepares to move to a new production facility in Roletto and Frossasco, which will cover an area three times larger than its current site.
Maurizio Traversa, CEO of Eurofork, stated: “We are delighted to have been selected to join this program, as it demonstrates that Eurofork has been recognized as a dynamic company with a solid business model and a clear growth strategy. This milestone serves as further motivation for a company like ours, which is constantly evolving and transforming. Eurofork strongly believes that participation in the program, along with the exchange of ideas within a network of experts, will lead to greater value creation and innovation, helping us achieve increasingly ambitious goals. This significant step is yet another confirmation that Eurofork is now a recognized company known for its ability to innovate and identify new expansion opportunities, also thanks to its close collaboration with the Polytechnic University of Turin and the MESAP innovation hub.”
