Event Details

Under the auspices of the Consulate General of Italy in Boston, and in collaboration with Goodwin Procter LLP, we invite you to BAIA's first East Coast event in Boston, a conference that will highlight the contribution of Italian enterprises and entrepreneurs to various sectors of our economy. Inbound investments from Italy, strategic acquisitions by established Italian firms and an inexhaustible supply of talent and entrepreneurial drive from Italy have long fueled economic growth in Boston and New England. Our keynote speakers and panelists will help us uncover this well-kept secret.
