It will offer warm hospitality and opportunities for fun and entertainment in order to share a taste for good living with participants, the fruits of respect for the land and its people.
The Modena area is a mosaic of colors and a surprising tapestry of art, nature, history, traditions, cars and good food. The quiet horizon of the lowlands, the gentle profile of the hills, the austere majesty of the Apennine peaks that stand out against the sky – this is a land of great emotions.
History has left its mark on these ancient lands, enriching the landscape with the charm of medieval hamlets and castles, the pomp of old palazzos and villas, the understated beauty of so many churches and the appeal of cities and towns.
Since the earliest times, the Modena territory has been a place where different cultures have come together, Etruscans and Celts, Romans and Longobards, right through to the long dominion of the Estense family, who chose Modena as its capital.
Its land is rich, lively, welcoming and forthright. Its present is fuelled by the millenary hard work of farming folk, by the vitality of artisan tradition and the creativity of an undisputed industrial record.
It is a land as vivacious as its inhabitants who love to celebrate its traditions, excellent products, legendary gastronomy and cars, art, history and culture.
The whole of the Modena community will welcome its guests at the end of June 2008.
The program will allow participants not only to attend conferences and modules of interest, but also view how local production and food systems work. The congress will have several venues, with parallel themed conferences held in locations related to local production.
