Interview to Claudio Colombo, Partner of De Berti Jacchia
What does "entrepreneurship" mean to you?
For us, entrepreneurship means being able to identify and seize opportunities for growth and innovation while facing challenges with integrity and strategic vision. It is the ability to create not only economic value but also social value, thanks to a responsible and sustainable approach. Entrepreneurship also means recognizing changes in the environment and being prepared to capitalize on them: in line with this approach, we constantly monitor regulatory developments on an international scale, so that our client companies are in a position to act swiftly and achieve the best possible results from these changes.
What are the values that set De Berti Jacchia apart in its approach to SMEs?
De Berti Jacchia stands out for shared values such as honesty, integrity, and transparency. We offer a service based on expertise and excellence: our guiding principle is encapsulated in our sharing value with you. Our daily professional commitment is always driven by the idea of sharing value with clients, professionals, and the people who work in the firm, as well as with our broader environment and all stakeholders we interact with on a daily basis. Our value system includes a constant commitment to non-discrimination and the promotion of diversity. Our mission is to provide high-value legal services aimed at supporting clients, including SMEs, in new business models, emerging markets, and the challenges of change.
What are the key moments when companies benefit most from your support?
Companies benefit most from our support during crucial times such as business transformations, internationalization processes, and the launch of new products or services. Our ability to provide multidisciplinary and customized advice, anywhere in the world thanks to our international network of law firms, combined with our rigorous adherence to high ethical standards, allows us to assist clients during strategic change phases. However, one of our key strengths is also supporting clients in their day-to-day operations: not only during moments of discontinuity but in the everyday management of their business, where we ensure our presence and make ourselves available to them.
Why is ELITE a distinctive network to be part of?
Being part of the ELITE network allows us to expand our collaboration opportunities with innovative and ambitious companies. ELITE is an ecosystem that facilitates access to expertise, resources, and international networks, creating synergies that promote sustainable business development and growth. Together, we can face the challenges of the future with strength and strategic vision.
