By Rich Luna | Aug 27, 2021

If the expression “timing is everything” needed further validation, now is the time to plan a trip to Italy! Luckily, the Italian National Tourist Board, MPI Italia and countless supporters are offering dozens of reasons to experience all there is to love about Italy while supporting the global meetings and events community!

For the 8th consecutive year during the annual Venice Exhibition of Cinematic Art, MPI Italia has championed creating a red-carpet experience for all through a networking reception, silent auction and surprise visits by actors while using the proceeds to support worthwhile causes. This year, proceeds from the Movie Charity Auction will go to the MPI Foundation and their ongoing support of meeting professionals across the globe.

“My only regret is I can’t be there in person,” said Kevin Kirby, executive director of the MPI Foundation. “Luckily, the experience is hybrid, so ANYONE can participate in their silent auction.”

Bidding commences Wednesday, September 1. The event is Friday, September 10.
