Italian term

che trova linfa

Italian to English Medical Medical: Health Care public private cooperation
despite the use of the term "lymph" in sure this is not a medical reference, but a stock phrase. See the context:

"E’ chiaramente un approccio di tipo innovativo , differente rispetto alla determinazione delle strategie aziendali tradizionali, che trova linfa nella consapevolezza di poter riorientare le relazioni con il sistema sanitario e con tutti coloro verso cui xxx Srl può attuare azioni di social responsibility ( decisori politici, organizzazioni non for profit, categorie professionali, media)."

in addition to lymph, linfa also stands for nourishment, sap (vigour) also usable figuratively

drawing its strength from

Linfa here is "sap". The new approach "feeds" on/ finds its strength in/ is born of the awareness etc.

You'll find something more suitable, I'm sure. HTH
