The survey was conducted by Confindustria Lombardia in collaboration with SACE and ISPI, with scientific coordination provided by the Assolombarda Study Centre and the involvement of other territorial associations that are members of Confindustria Lombardia: Associazione Industriali Cremona, Confindustria Alto Milanese, Confindustria Bergamo, Confindustria Brescia, Confindustria Como, Confindustria Lecco e Sondrio, Confindustria Mantova, and Confindustria Varese.

The biennial Internationalisation Survey monitors the methods of international presence, geographical areas of interest, and the reorganisation of supply chains within the Lombard manufacturing sector at a regional level.

The 2025 edition, which gathered data from 1,012 local companies, further examines the impact of geopolitics on corporate strategic and organisational decisions, investigating whether and how the recent climate of extreme uncertainty has influenced the direction of economic actors.
