Italian Wine Ambassadors: celebrating the past, understanding the present, facing the future.

 

The past

2023 marks the 10th anniversary of the wine2wine Business Forum and that’s a milestone worth celebrating. So much has happened in the last ten years and, despite a global pandemic, climate change and economic crises, there is much to celebrate. At the top of our list is the establishment and success of the Italian Wine Ambassador program, an international network of 340 certified ambassadors responsible for promoting Italian wine across the globe. This network of ambassadors is at the heart of the wine2wine Business Forum 2023 experience, providing a platform for their talent, experience and expertise.

Delivered by leading figures in the sector, these sessions unpack the most up-to-date market analysis and explore recent developments affecting the wine sector, allowing participants to fully understand the cultural, commercial and legal context in which they operate.
