According to a recent LinkedIn post from Bandosubito, Italy’s tourism sector may soon benefit from a €109 million support measure already approved by the Ministry of Economy on March 16, 2026 and awaiting publication in the Official Gazette. The post indicates that applications will open only after this formal step is completed.

The company’s LinkedIn post highlights four strategic pillars for eligible initiatives: destagionalizzazione of tourist flows, digitalization of business processes, environmental sustainability and adherence to ESG criteria. The measure appears designed to nudge tourism operators toward longer seasonality, tech adoption and greener operations.
As described in the post, the scheme combines non‑repayable grants of up to 30% of eligible costs, capped at €4.5 million per project, with access to subsidized financing for the remaining 70%. Investment thresholds are positioned for larger projects, with a minimum spend of €1 million and a maximum of €15 million per initiative.
For investors, the post suggests a forthcoming wave of capex in Italian tourism assets, particularly among operators able to structure sizable ESG‑aligned and digital projects. Advisory and financing intermediaries such as Bandosubito, which focuses on facilitated finance, could see increased demand for support in project design, funding applications and execution if the measure is implemented as outlined.
