The eighth edition of the annual wine2wine Business Forum will be held on October 18th and 19th 2021 in a hybrid format: participants can opt to participate in person at the PalaExpo in Veronafiere (Verona) or connect online through the digital platform. This is a brand new edition for the resurgence of the wine industry, with new innovation, inspiration and networking possibilities, both online and onsite. The third party platform was introduced in 2020 and gives attendees the ability to follow the 70+ sessions from anywhere and from any device, both live and on-demand. Speakers will deliver their speeches from Verona or remotely, followed by live Q&A sessions. Materials shared during the forum (presentations, links, etc.) will be made available on the platform for all attendees registered for the event.
This year the wine2wine Business Forum will cover several topics including: a track dedicated to 20 foreign markets in collaboration with ITA Agency, focus on communication and marketing, as well as a spotlight on education and inclusiveness. Colangelo & Partners will contribute 4 sessions to the wine2wine Business Forum 2021, including:
- David Parker, CEO of Benchmark Wine Group and President of the National Association of Wine Retailers, will present how to sell fine wine in the US through multi-channel marketing.
