Bologna, MARCH 2024
Bonfiglioli Consulting, an Italian business consulting firm specializing in operations efficiency and internationalization, a pioneer of the lean method and today present with 12 branches in three Continents (USA, Europe, India), has just signed, through its subsidiary Octagona, an agreement with Kampani Capital (division of Anak Consulting LLP), one of India's leading financial advisory firms.
The aim of the agreement is to integrate into the service offering of Bonfiglioli Consulting, which is already strongly rooted in India thanks to its Business Unit international, of which Octagona is a part, the possibility of handling extraordinary operations in the Indian territory, such as acquisitions and/or mergers, the search for venture capital and the search for financial support.
Octagona, which has been present in India for more than twenty years, supporting Italian companies with interests in international markets, already recognized as a specialized interlocutor by institutions, banks and associations, will provide valuable support to all Indian investors who are clients of Kampani Capital in order to bring them in and help them develop their investments in Italy.
The agreement strengthens the presence of the Bonfiglioli Consulting Group in a country whose development seems unstoppable and which already positions it ahead of China and Russia, thanks to an annual GDP growth rate that has been steadily around 7% for a decade (source IME).
The Bonfiglioli Consulting team is excited to embark on this journey with Kampani Capital (a division of Anak Consulting LLP) - comments Alessandro Fichera, Equity Partner and Director of the International Business Unit of Bonfiglioli Consulting :” and we are confident that the collaboration will result in important and successful projects. Thanks to Kampani's experience and expertise in providing financial advisory, Manager Acquisition and M&A services, our group will also be able to support extraordinary transactions in the Indian territory. We can only be satisfied and proud of this new partnership, thanks to which we will be able to provide valuable support to Italian investors to develop their investments in India, a cornerstone of our mission.“»
Amar Kampani, CEO and founder of Kampani Capital said, India and Italy share very old and strong economic, cultural and political ties. This agreement with the Octagona Group will greatly help build stronger financial ties in sectors such as automotive, manufacturing, high tech, transportation, and consumer products. India continues to be an important player in the global economy, with IMF forecasting a growth rate of over 6.5% per annum for next year, and we look forward to working closely with Octagona by facilitating both inbound investment into India and investment from India's leading companies/family offices. We are extremely excited to work closely with Octagona's prestigious client base and look forward to our contribution to Italian companies looking to develop their business in India.'”
India is now a central country in the global scenario and balance, for geographical, demographic (it is the second most populous country in the world) and geopolitical reasons. In particular, there are two factors that make it a destination of interest for our companies: the Indian government's boost to the manufacturing sector, through incentive plans, and the size of domestic demand, which turns this country into a huge local market. Aspects that make it easier to decide to set up manufacturing hubs within the territory
For these reasons, starting this year Bonfiglioli Consulting has decided to also include India as a new destination within its Study tours proposed to companies.
With India and its strong impetus in sectors such as aerospace and hi-tech, we want to offer a glimpse into the future of innovation and provide the right complement to that ideal thread of Operational Excellence that starts from Japanese Lean and passes through Silicon Valley and reaches Germany, respectively the cradles of global Digitization and European manufacturing.»Adds Michele Bonfiglioli, CEO of Bonfiglioli Consulting.
Today in India there are more than 700 success stories of Italian companies operating in the market, well over a hundred of which are accompanied by Octagona.
