THE X EDITION OF THE PREMIO ECCELLENZA ITALIANA October, 14 11:00 AM EST at Intercultural Center (ICC) Room 107 - 37th & O Street - N.W. - Washington D.C. 20057
WASHINGTON D.C - X EDITION OF THE ITALIAN EXCELLENCE AWARD
Excellence and sustainability are the watchwords for learning about the most beautiful stories of companies, professionals, and associations in the name of those values. Italians are a "model that makes us unique and a cultural superpower." Reading the winners' names, one is taken by the pleasant surprise of seeing Italians represented in less than twenty stories. Italians are capable of standing out in the world: there are researchers, scholars, entrepreneurs, and professionals who come from many different parts of the USA in the name of a story of Merit and Competence; just as from Italy, there are surprising cases of foundations, associations, companies that try to offer the original contribution that comes from the small yet innovative size, although familiar and anchored to the territory. And there are young people and women.
“I am honored to have received the prestigious "Italian Excellence" award. This recognition represents an essential affirmation of the efforts of Renaissance Evolution, known as the international think-tank and official promoter of the Italian language and culture for the Southeast United States and the Caribbean. I thank Massimo Lucidi and the entire award organization for considering my work and believing in its value. The award you have given me dramatically motivates me to continue this path. I would also like to express my gratitude to John J. DeGioiaci and the team at Georgetown University who organized this event. I feel obliged to thank Minister Antonio Tajani for his words: "Cultural diplomacy is a strategic tool at the service of the national interest, on which we must focus to fuel Italy's attractiveness and its ability to influence the world." I also thank the Consul General and the Vice Consul of the Consulate General of Miami and our fantastic team, who, with great dedication, increased the number of Italophiles daily. I conclude by once again expressing my gratitude to Massimo Lucidi, the Honorable SDS Giorgio Silli, and Tim Phillips, President of our Leadership Committee, who I consider "Renaissance men" for their intuition and passion in describing the best of Italy”, comments on Dr. Roberto Masiero, Founder and President of Renaissance Evolution.
