Italy's Expo Pavilion at Turin's Gusto food fair

(ANSA) - Milan, October 22 - The Italy Pavilion for Milan Expo 2015 will be on show at the Slow Food food fair Salone del Gusto in Turin from Thursday through Monday. The Italy Pavilion, which will be a major landmark in the food-themed world fair, has a 40 sq m stand flanking that of the agriculture ministry. Milan Expo 2015 runs May to October next year.
    "(The Salone del Gusto) is an important occasion to meet and involve many of the main Italian stakeholders. We will interview them in an appropriately equipped digital space what they expect from Expo, how they will be present in Milan in 2015 and how Expo can launch a new development policy for the national agrifood sector," said Paolo Verri, director exhibit content and events for the Italy Pavilion.
    "We thank Carlo Petrini, Roberto Burdese and all our Piedmontese friends with whom we are sharing part of the path of nearing Expo, and we pay our compliments for their new, extraordinary edition of Terra Madre and Salone del Gusto," said Cesare Vaciago, managing director of the Italy Pavilion, making reference to Slow Food's founder and president, respectively.
    Terra Madre is a gathering of Slow Food farmers and operators from around the world that takes place at the Salone del Gusto once every two years.
