Eternal City to open up its interactive hand national CVB event

  National Convention Bureau Italia says it will gather 45 international buyers to meet 35 Italian suppliers for three days of “unconventional business” in Rome, 7-9 November 2019, as it hosts the second edition of its Italy at Hand. The format is designed to enable buyers to get to know the authentic Italy and this year they will discover prestigious locations in Rome, as well as networking and taking part in interractive activities. Tobia Salvadori, Strategic Relations at Convention Bureau Italia, says: “We are preparing the second edition of Italy at Hand with all our usual enthusiasm for a challenge, and we’re ready to repeat and even double the huge success of last year, which saw 888 business meetings, the involvement of 24 strategic national and international partners, guests such as Ray Bloom and Oscar Farinetti. “To make it even more exciting there is the complexity of a destination like Rome which is so famous but which has many less well known aspects. “Whoever comes to Italy at Hand does not come merely to a business event but to live for three days like an Italian, to eat Italian and to learn to do things the Italian way, to think like an Italian, to perceive the depth and the essence of the real, authentic Italy.” Photo: Palazzo Re Eenzo, venue for business meetings
