A single partner, from finding the right call to the project delivered and reported
PiùServizi Sicilia is an association that combines a network of employees and professionals holding international expertise with a deep knowledge of the territory it works in. Project design, project management, delivery and financial reporting, technical assistance, training, communication and internationalisation: complementary skills working together towards a single goal, turning opportunities into concrete results.
Rooted in Sicily, connected to the world
What sets us apart are two forces that hold each other up: first-hand knowledge of the territory we work in, and expertise built on European and international programmes, with partners in Europe, the Mediterranean area, the United States and the East. This is where the ability to read a call and build a project that holds together comes from.
