The Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation, Antonio Tajani, and the Minister of Agriculture, Food Sovereignty and Forestry, Francesco Lollobrigida, open the presentation event of the 9^th edition of the Week of Italian Cuisine in the World.

This integrated promotion initiative is aimed at enhancing the value of Italian food and wine abroad, thus supporting exports, internationalisation and incoming tourism flows.

The presentation will be followed by a panel discussion between qualified interlocutors of the Italian agricultural and industrial production chain, such as Italian Trade Agency, Confagricoltura, Coldiretti, Filiera Italia, Federalimentare, Tutto Food and Onfoods. During the event, the "Accademia della Cultura Enogastronomica Italiana" project, which is designed to promote Italy's food and wine heritage abroad, will be illustrated, along with the collaboration programme involving the diplomatic-consular network and the Italian Cultural Institutes for the 2024 Week of Italian Cuisine in the World.
