CDI Global Italy Advises Axioma on Acquisition by Zucchetti

MILAN & CHICAGO - June 14, 2021 - PRLog -- CDI Global Italy is pleased to announce they have successfully guided Axioma in their acquisition by Zucchetti.

Zucchetti is the Italian leader in the supply of software, hardware, and services.
