Made in Italy around the world

The Be IT Campaign turns one!

Through a series of incredible events, our network of embassies is celebrating its one-year anniversary by presenting Italy’s innovative skills and creative flare throughout the world.

Cooking shows, art exhibitions, concerts, and other events are great places for showcasing Made in Italy’s signature style, talent, and high-quality supply and production chains. From Mexico to India, and all the way to France, everyone loves Italy.

It’s time to Be IT!
