Marcolin brings "Talk" format abroad: second appointment held in Shangai
The innovative discussion platform, created by Marcolin, made its debut outside Italy for the first time
The second event took place on Friday May 31st at the Group's showroom in Shanghai, the beating heart of the Asian economic and financial community. The event was organized in collaboration with the Italian Chamber of Commerce in China.In continuity with the Talk held in Milan last October, Visions remains the key theme of the event, around which useful, high-level discussions and ideas were generated to shed light on highly topical issues: from the value of Made in Italy in the global markets – particularly in Asia – to sustainability, without overlooking the relationship between local culture and female empowerment, as well as the impact of new technologies on the luxury segment. The meeting featured speeches from three special guests: Jerome Bachasson, President of Greater China, Zegna; Mauro Maggioni, Vice Chairman-Shanghai at the China-Italy Chamber of Commerce & CEO, APAC Golden Goose; Natsuko Watanabe, Vice President and General Manager, TOM FORD Beauty China.
During the evening, the panel was moderated by Clara Magnanini, Marcolin Group Communication Director. At the end of the guests' speeches, conclusions were discussed with Lorenzo Barberio, General Manager & Head of Sales APAC and Fabrizio Curci, CEO & General Manager of the Group, who expressed their satisfaction with having brought the format abroad and underscored how essential it is for the Company to stimulate a broader discussion, which transcends the approaches of the reference industry, providing its community with the tools to see through a new 'frame', while inspiring transformation and stimulating social and cultural debate.
Marcolin Talk, launched in Milan at the end of 2023, thus officially begins its journey around the world, with the goal of actively involving both stakeholders and partners operating in key markets within Marcolin's hubs around Europe, the United States and Asia.
