On Wednesday 20 February 2013 Minister for Foreign Affairs Giulio Terzi will chair a meeting at the foreign ministry in Rome entitled “The Year of Italian Culture in the USA 2013: a public/private partnership model for the promotion of Italian culture abroad”, organised with the support of ENI and Banca Intesa.
At two months since the dedication in Washington of the Year of Italian Culture in the United States, the event will serve to illustrate the goals already successfully met by means of the new public/private partnership model on which the Year of Italian Culture hinges; a model capable of yielding positive results regarding the projection of Italy’s system of cultural and productive excellences, not only in the United States but in other countries and continents as well.
Minister Giulio Terzi will make a brief statement to the press at the meeting’s conclusion.
