REGOLAMENTO GENERALE PER LA PARTECIPAZIONE ALLE INIZIATIVE ORGANIZZATE
DALL’ICE
ART. 1. PREMESSA. Le iniziative sono organizzate dall'Istituto nel quadro della politica di
promozione dei prodotto italiano all'estero decisa dal Ministero del Commercio con l'Estero. Le
decisioni prese dall'Istituto sono quindi dirette a promuovere e tutelare, in via prioritaria,
L’immagine dell'Italia in generale, l'interesse collettivo e la riuscita complessiva dell'iniziativa.
ART. 2. PARTECIPAZIONE. Sono ammesse a partecipare le aziende italiane, regolarmente
registrate presso le CCIAA, che rispondono direttamente dell'osservanza delle norme di
partecipazione da parte dei propri incaricati o rappresentanti in loco. Sono altresì ammessi a
partecipare organismi italiani quali federazioni, associazioni, enti pubblici e privati e consorzi. La
richiesta di partecipazione da parte di tali organismi viene considerata come "domanda collettiva"
di partecipazione, salvo accordi diversi che dovranno essere di volta in volta concordati con
]'Istituto in sede di ammissione alla manifestazione. Anche per tali soggetti, nonché per le aziende
ammesse loro tramite, valgono tutte le norme contenute nel presente "Regolamento" unicamente a
quelle contenute nelle circolari emanate dall'Istituto per la specifica iniziativa. li termine 'azienda"
indicato nel presente "Regolamento" vale anche per gli organismi e soggetti di cui sopra che
richiedono di partecipare all'iniziativa in riferimento.
ART. 3. DOMANDA DI AMMISSIONE ED ESCLUSIONI. L'adesione all'iniziativa può essere
avanzata esclusivamente con l'inoltro del modulo "domanda di ammissione". Lo stampato, fornito
dall'Istituto, deve essere restituito entro i termini indicati per ogni specifica iniziativa. Sono prese
in considerazione, prioritariamente, le "domande di ammissione" pervenute nei termini stabiliti,
debitamente compilate e sottoscritte. Per quanto riguarda la data di presentazione fa fede il
protocollo di arrivo all'Istituto o la data di trasmissione risultante sul telefax. Le domande devono
essere sottoscritte dal rappresentante legale dell'azienda con l'apposizione dei timbro recante la
denominazione sociale. L'Istituto si riserva la facoltà di accettare le domande di ammissione e di
accogliere, in tutto o in parte, le richieste di area o altro in esse contenute, senza privilegio alcuno
per i partecipanti alle edizioni precedenti. Sono escluse le aziende che: non sono in regola con i
pagamento dovuti all'Istituto; non si sono attenute a disposizioni impartite in precedenti occasioni o
hanno assunto un comportamento tale da recare pregiudizio al buon nome dell'Istituto o
all’immagine dell'Italia; non hanno dimostrato sufficiente serietà commerciale causando lamentele
o proteste giustificate da parte degli operatori locali; non hanno osservato norme e regolamenti
imposti dai singoli Enti frenetici esteri organizzatori delle manifestazioni o leggi del paese
ospitante; hanno utilizzato abusivamente marchi di altre aziende. In ogni caso l'eventuale mancato
accoglimento della domanda di ammissione sarà comunicato all'azienda interessata con
l'indicazione dei relativi motivi.
ART. 4. QUOTA DI PARTECIPAZIONE. La quota di partecipazione ha natura di concorso al
complesso delle spese da sostenere per la realizzazione dell'iniziativa e non è quindi riferibile a
singole prestazioni, Tale quota, indicata nella circolare relativa alla specifica iniziativa, è definita a
forfait oppure, in caso di fiere o mostre, parametrata ai mq. o ai "moduli" e non è comprensiva
dell'IVA, ove dovuta. La quota di partecipazione potrà, per cause sopravvenute, essere soggetta ad
aumenti. Con la firma della "domanda di ammissione" l'azienda si impegna a sostenere tale
eventuale maggiore onere sempre che esso sia contenuto entro un massimo del 10%. Le
prestazioni comprese nella quota di partecipazione sono indicate nella circolare relativa alla
specifica iniziativa.
ART. 5 AMMISSIONE ED ASSEGNAZIONE AREA ESPOSITIVA. La ammissione
all'iniziativa è data dall'Istituto a mezzo comunicazione scritta. L'assegnazione delle aree e degli
stand viene decisa dall'Istituto tenuto conto delle esigenze organizzative, funzionali, tecniche
progettuali e dell'ottimale impostazione complessiva dell'iniziativa. A causa delle caratteristiche
dell'arca o della ripartizione degli spazi l'Istituto può essere costretto ad assegnare una superficie
non esattamente corrispondente per dimensione ed ubicazione a quella richiesta. L'Istituto si
riserva la possibilità di modificare, ridurre e cambiare in qualsiasi momento l'ubicazione c/o le
dimensioni dell'area assegnata, qualora esigenze e/o circostanze lo richiedessero, senza diritto
alcuno da parte dell'espositore ad indennità o risarcimenti. In caso di riduzione della superficie
assegnata spetterà all'azienda una proporzionale riduzione della quota di partecipazione con
relativo rimborso. Non è permesso subaffittare o cedere a terzi la totalità o parte della superficie
espositiva assegnata. Non è permesso ospitare nella stand altre aziende o esporre i prodotti senza
preventivo accordo scritto con l'Istituto.
ART. 6. PAGAMENTI E RIMBORSI. Con la sottoscrizione della "domanda di ammissione"
l'azienda si impegna a versare l'ammontare dovuto. Per talune iniziative può essere richiesto
dall'Istituto un anticipo sull'importo totale. Trascorsi 10 giorni dalla data di comunicazione
dall’ammissione all'iniziativa tramite fax, telex o telegramma e della relativa assegnazione di area
espositiva l'Istituto procederà all'emissione della fattura per l'importo da corrispondere. In tale
fattura sono riportate la somma dovuta, il modo ed il termine di pagamento (generalmente entro 15
giorni dalla data della fattura). In caso di ritardato pagamento, saranno applicati gli interessi di
mora a decorrere dalla data di scadenza della fattura o, se non specificato, a 30gg dalla data della
fattura. In caso di variazione di date o annullamento dell'iniziativa, per cause di forza maggiore o
comunque indipendenti dalla volontà dell'Istituto, l'Istituto stesso, provvederà, entro 60 gg. dalla
data di comunicazione, al solo rimborso di quanto versato dall'azienda. In caso di variazione di
data la restituzione avrà luogo nei limiti suindicati solo se l'azienda non riconfermerà la propria
adesione. Qualora l'azienda non abbia provveduto al pagamento della quota dovuta, decade da
ogni diritto di partecipazione e pertanto non potrà prendere possesso dello stand inizialmente
assegnato.
ART. 7. PRESTAZIONI A CARICO DELL'AZIFNDA ESPOSITRICE. Sono di norma a
carico dell'azienda espositrice che dovrà provvedere in proprio, salvo diversa indicazione:
spedizioni-trasporto-consegna campionari fino a destinazione nell'area-stand assegnato, ed
eventuale ritorno, con operazioni doganali e pratiche connesse; sistemazione campionario in
esposizione

aggiuntive di allestimento-arredo oltre quelle indicate per la specifica iniziativa, previo nulla osta
dell'Istituto; assicurazione contro rischi trasporto, danni e furto campionari e materiali esposti
prima, durante e dopo la manifestazione; viaggio e soggiorno con prenotazioni connesse. Il
reperimento del personale per lo stand e l'installazione di telefoni, fax, telex, ed altre
apparecchiatura può essere richiesto all'Istituto fermo restando che i relativi costi saranno a carico
dell'azienda partecipante.
ART. 8. DOTAZIONE E SISTEMAZIONE AREA-STAND. L'area e/o lo stand, se
predisposto dall'Istituto, viene fornito secondo quanto indicato nelle circolari della specifica
iniziativa. Forniture
particolari non comprese nelle dotazioni potranno eventualmente essere
fornite solo se richieste con congruo anticipo e con addebito a parte. Eventuali richieste di
variazioni, modifiche o integrazioni presentate in loco potranno essere soddisfatte nei
limiti
delle possibilità, sempre con
addebito. A conclusione dell'iniziativa gli espositori devono riconsegnare l'area assegnata e gli
arredi/dotazioni nelle stesse condizioni in cui sono stati consegnati. Sono a carico degli
espositori gli eventuali danni causati dagli stessi. La scritta richiesta dalla azienda partecipante
per il cartello/insegna dello stand potrà essere sintetizzata c/o modificata dall'Istituto laddove
fosse necessario per esigenza di spazio ovvero per garantire un’uniformità di presentazione della
grafica. L'esposizione di eventuali manifesti, cartelli od altro materiale pubblicitario o
promozionale può essere limitata ovvero sottoposta ad autorizzazione dell'Istituto in presenza di
esigenze di decoro, di immagine e di rispetto delle leggi e dell'etica vigente nel paese ospitante.
ART. 9.AREA/STAND NON ALLESTITI. Nel caso di iniziative in cui l'istituto procede alla
sola assegnazione dell'area e/o stand senza allestimento, le aziende partecipanti dovranno
provvedere all'allestimento c/o arredamento della propria area/stand impegnandosi a rispettare le
indicazioni organizzativi e tempistiche impartite nonché rispettare i regolamenti generali, le
norme di montaggio-smontaggio, di sicurezza, di copertura assicurativa etc., previsti e pubblicati
dagli Enti o Società organizzatrici della manifestazione.
ART. 10. SISTEMAZIONE E PRESENTAZIONE CAMPIONARIO. Lo espositore si
impegna ad essere presente nel proprio stand per la verifica del campionario e la sistemazione
dello stesso entro il termine indicato per la specifica iniziativa. L'espositore si impegna altresì,
prima della chiusura della manifestazione, a non abbandonare lo stand, e a non iniziare lo
smontaggio o il reimballaggio del campionario. Il mancato rispetto di tale regola, recando un
danno all'immagine della manifestazione e dell'Italia, può comportare l'esclusione da altre
iniziative dell'Istituto. L'Istituto si riserva la facoltà di far ritirare dall'esposizione quei prodotti,
oggetti o arredi che non siano in linea con ]'immagine della manifestazione o dell'Italia, con i fini
istituzionali dell'attività dell'Istituto stesso, con il tema dell'iniziativa, con i regolamenti della
fiera o le leggi del paese in cui ha luogo l'iniziativa stessa. E' in ogni caso vietato esporre
prodotti stranieri c/o distribuire materiale pubblicitario a tali prodotti.

dall'azienda. Trascorso detto termine, salvo diversa regolamentazione prevista espressamente
nella circolare della specifica iniziativa, l'azienda è tenuta al pagamento dell'intero ammontare
dovuto, necessario a coprire i costi impegnati e/o sopportati dall'Istituto per la realizzazione
dell'iniziativa. Ove lo spazio espositivo inizialmente assegnato all'azienda rinunciataria, venga
successivamente riassegnato in tempo utile ad altra/e azienda/e, la prima sarà tenuta al solo
pagamento di una penale pari al 30% dell'ammontare dovuto.
ART. 12. RECLAMI. Eventuali vizi nell'adempimento degli obblighi assunti dall'ICE,
dovranno essere immediatamente contestati dall'azienda ammessa all'iniziativa con circostanziato
reclamo scritto all'Istituto onde consentite l'accertamento, la rimozione e la eventuale azione di
regresso nei confronti di terzi responsabili. L'Istituto potrà rispondere degli eventuali danni
derivanti dai vizi accertati entro il limite massimo della quota di partecipazione corrisposta
dall'azienda per la specifica iniziativa. In particolare, relativamente ai vizi negli allestimentiarredi dell'area-stand, l'azienda dovrà, a seconda se gli stessi vengano rilevati: al momento della
consegna, avanzare circostanziato reclamo scritto al funzionario o tecnico ICE presenti in loco a pena di decadenza - entro e non oltre il giorno dell'inaugurazione della specifica iniziativa (il

i quali vigano divieti o restrizioni.
ART. 15. ASSICURAZIONE. La quota di partecipazione non comprende, salvo diversa
indicazione, alcuna assicurazione. L'assicurazione del campionario, quando prevista, è

Fertile eggs
Since six months, a SME has been producing day old broiler chicks for the Lesotho local market.
They use equipment made of incubators and hatchers, with a capacity of 60 000 chicks a week
(based on 80% hatchability). Currently, the hatchery is operating at a quarter of the available
capacity and the customer demand cannot be met. This is mainly caused by a lack of fertile
settable eggs, and the company wants to address this problem by producing eggs locally for Ross,
Hubbard and Cobb types of flock. Their next venture aims at the acquisition of land, the
construction of a 3500 bird house and the purchase of parent stock that is reared to produce fertile
eggs. The sources of finance suggested are equity of at least 25% of the venture from the SME
and bank borrowing of 75%. If another equity partner is found in the form of a joint venture or
direct equity ownership, the bank loan can be reduced. Total partner contribution is estimated at
200,000 Euros. Main customers of fertile settable eggs will be hatcheries in Lesotho, but fully
implemented, other southern African hatcheries that experience shortages can
also be supplied.

Herbal soap importers
A small scale industry focusing on production of health products is producing herbal soaps, made
with predominantly organically produced base and essential oils. It uses small scale production
tools and simple labeling. Currently products are marketed as Zambian soap and partly to the
USA. The basic oils and essential oils are all sourced from within Zambia and the region and are
selected on science guided information on plant benefits. The company would like to scale up its
production and marketing activities in response to some enquiries received from other countries
including Malaysia, EU and African countries. This expansion in production will require additional
production equipment, improved packaging as well as more raw materials. The company also
envisages to diversify its business operations to include other cosmetic products such as liquid
herbal soap, and lotions using indigenous Southern African oils. The company is looking for a loan
finance (100,000 to 250,000 Euros), technology transfer or improved access to markets.

A company with a turnover of over one million Euros, runs cotton contract growing schemes
through the provision of inputs on credit to cotton farmers and extension services. They then buy
back the crop from the farmers, gin the cotton and export 70% of the lint to the international
markets. 30% of lint is reserved for the local market. The ginned seed is further processed to
produce cooking oil for the local market, cotton cake for export, hulls and soft stock for stock
feeds. Markets are established in Switzerland, Germany, United Kingdom, Russia, Japan, and
Dubai. The company now intends to grow through creation of additional production capacity, with a
number of jobs to be created of about 150 people for permanent staff. The company also has
plans to install its own ginnery. The land has been surveyed and the ginnery equipment is already
in the country. They are looking for a structured finance (joint venture, equity participation, loan

A farmer based organization focuses on the transformation and commercialization of soya beans
in the form of fresh and sour soya milk, bread, soya mince balls, sausages, snacks and coffee.
These products are sold through local supermarkets, village shops and markets. It uses collective
action as the tool for improving production, processing and marketing of products and to exploit
agribusiness opportunities. Since 2002, the organization was supported in setting up the
association, train farmers in organizational and development skills and teams. The current phase
focuses on market demand driven soy processing using five soya milk processing machines
(capacity 60 to 100 L/Hr). This organization seeks to increase processing of soya beans primarily
to fresh milk with financial and technical support to grow to export products in good volumes. The
partner is expected to bring in investments for equipment of the processing plant.

Organic fruit processors
A medium scale company, established in 2002, is proposing a project for fish farming of tilapia in
cages on a lake. The project is new and the promoters are looking for suitable finance (loan
finance) and partners (Joint Venture, equity participation). The project is planned to be carried out
in phases and will reach a maximum production of 5,000 tons of tilapia per year in three years. The
local market can easily absorb all the fish and products produced and there is tremendous
potential for export of tilapia and products to the region. Currently Zambia imports tilapia from
China, Taiwan and Zimbabwe. The total investment is 3.5 mln. Euros in three years. The turnover
at full production will be 7 mln. with a profit margin of 40% and the project will create 200 jobs in a
very poor part of Zambia.
