Made in Italy resumes its journey along with the Azzurri tonight in Munich. FIGC and the Ministry for the Economic Development have organised another important promoting activity for Italian companies with the cooperation of ICE (Institution for Commerce Abroad). The programme ‘Made in Italy on the Field’, which made its debut last October in Azerbaijan and travelled along with the national team for other away matches, will this time encompass a meeting between representatives of Institutions, companies, opinion leaders and stakeholders from Germany and Italy. Former Italy head coach Giovanni Trapattoni, a true icon of Italian football as both player and manager, will be an honorary guest of the event. The four World Cup trophies won by Italy in 1934, 1938, 1982 and 2006 will also be on display tonight. All this shows how football, one of Italy’s best products, can turn into a means for opening a dialogue with economical operators from foreign countries. Tomorrow a masterclass in Italian design is scheduled for 13:00 CEST at the Gaszahlerwerkstatt; this class will see the participation of important Italian and German architects to promote the XXI Triennale and the Salone del Mobile in Milan. A wine tasting will then be hosted by the Unione Italiana Vini. Finally, the website INVESTINITALY.COM will be advertised on the hoardings around the sidelines during the game between the two sides.
