B2B Event: Enlarging the Network - SMEs in Action
Overview

On 9th November, 2023, CNA Bari is hosting a dynamic B2B event aimed at fostering entrepreneurial ties within the tourism and artisanal sector. With the participation of at least ten economic operators from Italy and Albania, this event promises to be a cornerstone in elevating the tourist offerings of emerging itineraries in less known areas.

The event will kick off with a warm welcome by Antonella Gernone, Secretary of CNA Bari, who will extend institutional greetings and set the tone for an engaging day ahead. Grazia Petrosino, Project Coordinator of CNA Bari, will then introduce the "Hamlet Plus" project, shedding light on its key capitalization actions and the immense opportunities it offers to participants.

Participants will be further acquainted with a diverse range of enterprises involved in the B2B sessions. From Holly Tour to Diomen Borici, and Maria Concetta Malorzo in Brindisi, attendees will gain invaluable insights into the operations of Apulian and Albanian artisans and SMEs.

The morning sessions will conclude with presentations by Gruppo Stile di De Virgilio, Alba Trip, Rosa Ladisa, Ondepiane, Nuova Colì, Alverare da Favola, and Caseificio Castellaneta. Each presentation will provide a unique glimpse into the world of Apulian and Albanian craftsmanship, ranging from hand-made jewelry to ceramics, honey production, and the production of typical cheese.

Following a well-deserved lunch break, participants will engage in a dedicated B2B session, with at least six desks available for one-on-one meetings. This session will offer a platform for economic operators to present cooperation opportunities, exchange ideas, and explore potential collaborations. The day will conclude with participant feedback sessions and a comprehensive conclusion, summarizing the highlights and key takeaways from the event.

"We are thrilled to facilitate the B2B event, which promise to be an excellent experience for economic operators in both Apulia and Albania," said Antonella Gernone, Secretary of CNA Bari. "The exchange of ideas and the establishment of fruitful partnerships will undoubtedly contribute to the growth and enrichment of the tourism sector in the South Adriatic region."
