Bimbi Italiani at the 47th General Assembly of the Thai-Italian Chamber of Commerce
Bimbi Italiani had the honor to attend the 47th Annual General Meeting (AGM) of the Thai-Italian Chamber of Commerce (TICC), held on March 11, 2025, at the prestigious Park Hyatt, Central Embassy. This extraordinary event brought together numerous representatives from the Italian and Thai business sectors, with the common goal of strengthening cooperation between the two countries.
Our participation was not only an opportunity to consolidate our relationships with other Italian organizations in Thailand but also a valuable moment to fulfill our mission: to passionately and dedicatedly promote Italian culture abroad. We firmly believe that spreading the “Made in Italy” worldwide also means collaborating with the private sector, building synergies with companies and institutions that share our values of excellence, innovation, and tradition.
Being a member of the TICC for the past three years fills us with pride. It has also allowed us to expand our reach, strengthen our collaborations, and actively contribute to the dissemination of Italian culture—not only in the educational field but also through business engagement.... LEARN MORE
