HBS And Italy!
Wednesday, we headed to the Italian Ambassador's Residence, Villa Firenze, with the Harvard Business School Club of Washington! We snapped CEO and president of the HBS Club of Washington, Antonio Alves, with Italian Ambassador Armando Varricchio and a brand new Lamborghini, which co-sponsored the event.
In cooperation with Lamborghini, this exclusive event brought together a distinguished group of prominent leaders in Washington, D.C., who share a common interest in the style, substance and society that is Italy. Here, Washington Life publisher John Arundel, joins Micaela Varricchio and the ambassador inside their residence.
The guests had the opportunity to network with fellow HBS alumni leaders and Italian diplomats at a cocktail reception and an intimate seated dinner. Here, Lamborghini Americas' Amir Hadzimehmedovic with Neighborhood Retail Group CEO Bethany Kazaba, Italian restaurateur Maria Trabocchi, Antonio Alves, chef and restaurateur Fabio Trabocchi and Wells Fargo's Michael Achilino.
As part of the evening, Alves interviewed the ambassador about his extensive experience as the "sherpa" of multiple G-7 and G-20 Summits. Here, journalist Finlay Lewis with Alves, Pen Faulkner Foundation executive director Willee Lewis and Cafritz Foundation chairman Calvin Cafritz.
