Georgia welcomed its first-ever Made in Italy Expo, a week-long celebration of Italian excellence in fashion, cinema, cuisine, design, and business. Held from September 15 to 22, the event attracted more than 1,000 participants. The program featured a wide range of activities: showroom activations, Italian restaurant engagements, an Italian Film Festival, industry talks, tastings, and a spectacular fashion show that closed the week.
Georgia, one of the fastest-growing economic hubs in the United States, has seen an 11.2% rise in labor productivity over the past decade and a 34% increase in real value-added output. Italian companies already play a significant role in this growth, generating over $4 billion in revenue and more than 6,000 jobs in the state.
