We the Italians October 31, 2014 - 46 | Page 5

All these events, the people who appreciate We the Italians, confirmed me that we’re headed in the right direction: and more good news are coming soon.

That’s all for now. So stay tuned, fasten your seat belt and enjoy the ride. The future’s so bright, we gotta wear shades!

In the same day I went to Taylor Street, Chicago’s Little Italy, where I visited the marvelous National Italian American Sports Hall of Fame: it is amazing to see memorabilia celebrating the several Italian champions in many different sports.

The next day, We the Italians was part of the Italian Expo at Bridgeport Art Center: an excellent event organized by the Italian Chamber of Commerce in Chicago, where I was happy to meet my friend Mauro Galli, President of the Chamber, together with many Italian companies representing wonderful excellences from Tuscany, Sicilia,

Lazio and Umbria. I truly think that the Italian Chambers of Commerce, either in Italy and abroad, are an irreplaceable factor of promotion for the millions of Italian producers, makers of our beloved Made in Italy products.

Last but not least, our partner Alessio Gambino attended on our behalf at the NIAF Gala dinner in

Washington DC, representing We the Italians and paying respect to our friends at NIAF.
