The Italy-America Chamber of Commerce Texas is pleased to announce that the Honorable Mariangela Zappia, Italian Ambassador to the United States of America, and Mauro Lorenzini, Italian Consul General in Houston, Texas, will be attending the Sunday evening networking reception on the occasion of the 2023 Taste of Italy trade fair and festival.
Madame Ambassador Zappia, above, and the Consul General will make brief remarks before the panel discussion held in the afternoon at the Omni hotel.
“We couldn’t be more honored to receive such a high-level delegation at our event,” said IACC director Alessia Paolicchi. “With more than 60 Italian companies whose representatives have traveled to Houston especially for the event, we were already expecting it to be one of the best gatherings to date. Their address to our exhibitors will make it all the memorable.”
Now in its ninth year, the Taste of Italy trade fair and festival is the largest event in the U.S. devoted exclusively to Italian food and wine.
