The 15th edition of Festa Italiana, held at the Mahalaxmi Race
Course in Mumbai, ended with great success. Organised by the Italian Chamber of Commerce in India (IICCI) in collaboration with the Embassy of Italy in New Delhi, the Consulate General of Italy in Mumbai and ENIT - National Tourism Agency, the evening celebrated Italian elegance, creativity and excellence in all its aspects: culture, gastronomy, design and entrepreneurship.
With over 350 guests, including institutional representatives, entrepreneurs and professionals, the event offered a prestigious showcase for Italian brands such as AGV Helmets, Carrera, Dainese, Ducati, Farmavita, Maserati, Poltrona Frau, Smeg Group and Technogym, further strengthening ties between Italy and India.
"Festa Italiana and the arrival of the Amerigo Vespucci school ship represent tangible symbols of the harmony between Italy and India, a relationship that grows stronger every year," said Antonio Bartoli, Italian Ambassador to New Delhi. Alessandro Giuliani, President of the Italian Chamber of Commerce in India, emphasised: "This was another year of significant growth in economic relations between the two countries; we could not have celebrated it better"
Claudio Maffioletti, CEO and Secretary General of the Italian Chamber of Commerce in India, added: "The IICCI is a community of over 700 companies. Festa Italiana is a unique opportunity to consolidate this extraordinary network".
The evening was enriched by a spectacular fashion show curated by Istituto Marangoni and exhibitions and tastings of Italian culinary excellence thanks to the participation of brands such as Acquerello, Premiati Oleifici Barbera, Bauli Group, Fratelli Beretta, Carpigiani Group,
