The global structural shift is positioning India as the definitive strategic partner for European industrial excellence. As negotiations for the EU‑India Free Trade Agreement (FTA) reach a pivotal stage, a new era of economic cooperation is opening for businesses across Europe.

This landmark agreement is expected to dismantle traditional trade barriers, harmonize regulatory standards and provide enhanced legal certainty for European investors, effectively creating a fast corridor for cross‑border expansion and multi‑market integration.

To explore these significant opportunities, we invite you to our Milan office for a pragmatic workshop featuring institutional representatives, business leaders and legal experts from our Italian and Indian offices. The purpose of the session is to translate geopolitical developments into actionable business solutions for European companies.

The discussion will focus on:

• leveraging the FTA to optimize tariffs and simplify customs procedures;
• selecting effective corporate structures for India;
• managing complex local legal and tax compliance.

The workshop will address the concept of “Diplomacy of Business”, offering strategies to de‑risk investments and navigate the Indian legal and fiscal ecosystem with precision.

The event will conclude with a light cocktail, providing participants the opportunity to discuss international expansion objectives directly with GA‑Alliance’s Indian leadership in an informal setting.

The sports industry is undergoing an unprecedented evolution. On one hand, elite competition generates massive financial flows; on the other, grassroots sports increasingly reinforce their constitutional dignity as a social value and a source of psycho‑physical well‑being (Art. 33 of the Constitution). In this context, Italy is preparing for major events — Milano Cortina 2026, Nitto ATP Finals, America’s Cup 2027, Italy–Turkey Euro 2032 — which require modern infrastructure and strategic management of sports tourism.

In this dynamic scenario, Justice in Sports emerges as the fundamental pillar ensuring equal conditions and effective protection for all stakeholders, from clubs to investors. Today, the system must respond to crucial challenges: the imminent Reform of the Italian Sports Justice System and the awaited ruling of the EU Court of Justice in the “Agnelli case.” Originating from the Lazio Regional Administrative Court (TAR Lazio), the case addresses essential legal issues: the compensatory jurisdiction of the Administrative Judge and the international scope of sanctions for violations of sporting loyalty.

GA-Alliance is promoting a high‑level technical and institutional discussion to analyze the current framework and future scenarios. The goal is to assess the legal and economic impact that these reforms and European rulings will have on the sports market. A necessary appointment to understand how the new rules of the game will transform the entire sector, ensuring legal certainty and financial competitiveness in an increasingly interconnected global market.

The finalized EU-Mercosur agreement is much more than a trade deal; it is a shift in the global regulatory landscape. For European companies, it represents the removal of billions in tariffs; for the legal and fiscal world, it introduces a complex web of new sustainability standards, intellectual property rules, and procurement opportunities.

Join us for this online workshop taking place on January 22, 2026, at 4.00pm (CET/GMT+1). We won't just tell you what the agreement says - we will tell you what it means for your bottom line and how to position your business to thrive in this new economic corridor.
