Italian outfits Bonelli Erede Pappalardo, NCTM and Gianni Origoni Grippo Cappelli & Partners have all rolled out a number of internal and strategic changes in recent weeks in a bid to address the ongoing volatility of the global economy.

Bonelli has outlined plans to increase the profile of its international best friends network by conducting more joint pitches in an effort to boost the number of panel places the firms win. The network includes Slaughter and May, Bredin Prat in France and Uria Menendez in Spain.
