The Consul expressed his wish that the event encourage a closer collaboration between Italy and Miami. Musillo concluded by stating that Italian design and architecture represent a point of reference for Miami, in particular in connection to themes such as circular economy, climate change and mobility, three sectors in which Italy is leader at international level.<\/p>\n
