We collaborate directly with companies who wish to organise a skill competition, a prize draw competition or a free gift promotion. We are able to provide a full service, or even just focus on a few selected aspects of the competition, according to your company’s requirements.
Prize promotions (competition, free gift promotions, etc.) can be organised only by manufacturing companies and businesses supplying or distributing goods and services, which make the object of the promotion, with the aim of advertising the company and increasing sales of the goods and services offered, as well as the visibility of the brand. Promotions can also be launched by those organisations representing business associations between companies, such as consortiums and cooperatives.
Such authorization is no longer required. However, as of Art. 10, item 1, of the Presidential Decree n. 430 of 26/10/2001, the subjects who intend to launch a prize competition must preventively communicate their initiative to the Ministry for Economic Development, by applying on-line through a dedicated form called “Prema CO/1, attaching the rules and regulations of the competitions, as well as a bank deposit receipt (bank /insurance guarantee or money deposit).
The PREMA CO/1 form is the dedicated form set up by Ministry for Economic Development, to be filled out and sent on-line in order to properly communicate the launch of a new competition. The official communication of the launch of a prize competition is binding and must be forwarded at least 15 days before the beginning of the competition.
