We never expected such an important public response: although the weather was not quite good, visitors flocked not only from our lands, but also from all parts of Italy.outside. Imagine our surprise when we saw the festival appear on the pages of a Spanish newspaper visited by about a hundred thousand people a month. “This festival has proven to all of us that the line we have chosen works, and benefits from sustained dedication, friendship, creativity and above all the desire to be together.” Confirms Jacopo Mancini, President of Cautha. On behalf of the entire team, I would like to thank all the partners and sponsors once again, starting with the Municipality of Cortona who has accompanied us up to this moment and the entire Cortona Sviluppo team always ready to support us. I also thank the guests who brought their expertise to Cortona and participated in our activities with enthusiasm and curiosity, with many of whom the collaboration is only just beginning.”
