Sold out at Palazzo Castiglioni in Milan for Friuli Venezia Giulia Meets Milano, the event aimed at the Horeca public and the press organized on May 15 by the Friuli Venezia Giulia Via dei Sapori Consortium in collaboration with PromoTurismoFVG and the Pordenone-Udine Chamber of Commerce to present the food and wine excellences of Friuli Venezia Giulia and the extraordinary tourist offer connected to them.

In a packed room, the event was inaugurated by Walter Filiputti, President of Friuli Venezia Giulia Via dei Sapori, Giovanni Da Pozzo, President of the Pordenone Udine Chamber of Commerce, Edy Morandini, Friuli Venezia Giulia Region Councilor, and Carlo Sangalli, President of Confcommercio Imprese for the Italy and the Chamber of Commerce of Milan, Monza-Brianza and Lodi.
The symposium was opened by Carlo Sangalli , who as host welcomed those present declaring that Milan is the perfect place to present the good and the best of Friuli Venezia Giulia. Giovanni Da Pozzo in his speech spoke of the richness of this border region, "it is a contamination that has propitiated the history of our gastronomy to intertwine with the history of other populations, represented this evening by 8 restaurants, ambassadors of our region and representatives of our excellence” explained the President of the Chamber of Commerce of Pordenone Udine.
Edy Morandini went on to say that “the Friuli Venezia Giulia Region wants to continue to focus on the combination of food and wine tourism and do so through quality. I can confirm that our regional council has invested a lot in the last 5 years both in infrastructures for tourist reception and for promotion; it is a cornerstone for us.”
Walter Filiputti , for his part, underlined how “The spirit of the consortium participants is the ability to get together. Broadening the perspective, Friuli Venezia Giulia Via dei Sapori has promoted the culture of teamwork in our area, which we have always helped to promote. A virtuous case, which has also been studied by Bocconi University, which has included us as a case history in the International Master in Food and Beverage Management. The seventy or so companies that are part of the group have a single common denominator: the pursuit of quality. Not only perceived quality but also ethical quality and sustainability, essential values today.”
“We started this project 23 years ago and we are constantly evolving- he continued- Then we sensed that the restaurant's potential went well beyond cooking and since then we have been committed with passion and conviction to the development of the food and wine identity through the daily work of the our chefs and important events, like tonight's one. One day we would like to create a small Academy for restaurant staff by making our experience available to raise these kids with the collaboration of the Friuli Venezia Giulia Region and PromoTurismoFVG.”
