"SIEC On The Road" is a program aimed at attending major domestic
and international fairs and events in order to create new business opportunities for our members and the Italian market in general.
In this program the institutional approach
typical of an association (promotion,
education, networking, etc.) is “merged” with
the information and communication activities
offered by Connessioni, the Integrated
Systems media.

This is the feather in our cap, our best
achievement so far.
UNI/PDR 4:2013 Best Practices on "Audio-
Video-Controls Integration Services" is a
document that states the criteria that should
be followed in delivering such services to the
customers.
The document adopts the draft prepared
by a work group of SIEC experts and has
been published on November 21st, 2013 by
UNI, the Italian Standardization Body.
It is the first step towards the certification of
Systems Integration companies.

We are committed to:
create new business opportunities,
create a trade fair for the Italian market,
improve awareness among users and buyers,
offer networking experiences,
encouraging the proper implementation of technologies,
offer training programs,
open a path towards certification,
conduct research on market size and growth,
defend the market from any threat.

We are committed to:
promote the quality of solutions proposed to customers,
create a trade fair for the Italian market,
provide visibility through webinars and SIEC On The Road,
conduct research on market size and growth,
defend the market from any threat.
We have already achieved some relevant results: best practices
sponsored by UNI, two conventions, webinars, SIEC On The Road.
We can do much more with your help.

When it comes to raise new taxes
or duties our legislators can be very
creative. An example is the levy on
private copies imposed on sales of
CDs and memory cards, that has
caused the demand for these
products to move to the gray
market.
And there are always new threats
looming on our industry, such as
imposing customs duties on some
product categories, extending the
television tax to multimedia
products, etc.
You need a strong Association
that can stand against
measures that can depress or
alter the marketplace.

We are committed to:
improve awareness among users and buyers,
involve professional associations,
create new business opportunities, in Italy and abroad,
protect and support the quality of the supply,
open a path towards certification,
offer training programs,
create occasions for meeting manufactures and distributors.
We have already achieved some relevant results: best practices sponsored by UNI, two conventions, webinars, SIEC On The Road.

A strong Association is more likely to gain the
full attention of third parties and
stakeholders, to the advantage of all
members.
Our stakeholders:
Government
Large buyers and contractors
Professional societies
Trade Associations
Trade fair organizers
A strong Association is one that represents a
large portion of the total business.
If we represent both the most relevant
brands and a fair amount of integrators
then our stakeholders will positively listen to
us.
![Page 22: Presentation siec 19.03.2014 en](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022042715/55935f1e1a28ab5e648b47d6/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Whether you are a manufacturer or
an integrator, if you share our vision and mission you can help us
achieve our goals by becoming a

There is strength in numbers, and the stronger we are, the more we can
obtain.
For you, too.
