Your base in Sicily
The registered or operational office of your business at Palazzo Biscari, in Catania. Not just any address: an ecosystem you become part of, and a way to put down roots in a region that needs them.
Why Sicily
Why open an office in Sicily
A region with great potential.
Opening an office in Sicily today is a competitive choice: a large talent pool renewed every year, a cost of living that frees up purchasing power, national and regional incentives that lower the cost of every hire, and a tax credit for those who invest.
But it’s also a choice that leaves a mark. Every company that settles here and hires helps make staying a possibility rather than a sacrifice. That’s why, for us, the companies that choose Sicily aren’t clients: they are partners in a shared mission.
Incentives change over time: we tell you about the ones available today and put you in touch with people who know how to use them.
Why Isola
More than an address, a choice that says who you are
Your office is more than a line in the company register.
Isola is a B Corp-certified social enterprise and a social innovation hub. Basing your office here means joining an ecosystem of organisations working on impact, culture and enterprise: social enterprises, impact startups, third sector organisations, foundations.
It isn’t a business centre. It’s a place where your office sits next to people doing things that matter to you, and where useful introductions happen even by chance.
Access to the ecosystem
More than a hundred organisations, including companies, foundations, universities and institutions, local and national.
Introductions to advisers
Our network for incentives, subsidised finance and funding calls. We aren’t consultants: we open the door to those who are.
Business opportunities
Partners, clients, suppliers, shared projects.
The spaces, when you need them
Desks and rooms at reduced rates.

The service
How Business Address works
Business Address: your registered or operational office at Palazzo Biscari
The Isola address becomes your company’s registered or operational office, your professional address, or simply your mailing address. You can use it for the Companies Register and for VAT registration, and as the address on your letterhead, business cards and website.
