THE BEST OF ITALIAN DESIGN
Miami, Autunno 2024

Presentazione:
Nel 2022 l’export italiano verso gli USA ha registrato una forte crescita (+12,7%) rispetto al 2021, con un valore 69 miliardi di dollari, il miglior risultato di sempre.

In particolare, nel 2022, le esportazioni italiane di arredo ed edilizia negli Stati Uniti hanno raggiunto la cifra di 4 miliardi di dollari, con una crescita del +18% rispetto all’anno precedente, posizionando l’Italia al sesto posto tra i fornitori di arredo. In particolare, registrano crescite importanti i Mobili (+25%), le Sedie (+25%), il Vetro (+22,8%), l’Illuminazione (+16,1%) e le Ceramiche (+11,5%) (Fonte: ICE).
Per molti brand d’arredo Miami risulta ormai essere il primo mercato, superando sia New York che Los Angeles. Il mercato del real estate dell’area metropolitana di Miami è tra i più dinamici ed in crescita a livello mondiale. Il Miami Design District è il quartiere con la più alta concentrazione di showroom di arredo di alta gamma in tutti gli Stati Uniti. Miami rappresenta inoltre un punto di riferimento in ambito distributivo e logistico per l’America Latina.
È proprio per dare visibilità alle eccellenze del design italiano sull’importante piazza di Miami che la Italy-America Chamber of Commerce Southeast organizzerà, il prossimo autunno 2024 nello spazio 4141 Atrium nel cuore del Miami Design District, la quinta edizione dell’evento “The Best of Italian Design”.
Circa 150 architetti, rivenditori e interior designer americani verranno invitati per una giornata di incontri B2B, seminari e networking con le imprese italiane.
Durante l’evento sono in programma discussioni stimolanti condotte da influenti protagonisti dell’industria dell’architettura e del design. Inoltre, i partecipanti avranno l’opportunità di partecipare a incontri B2B e ad una serata diffusa di networking organizzata in diversi showroom italiani all’interno del Miami Design District.
Il programma della quarta edizione del The Best of Italian Design si articolerà come segue:
* Sessione B2B: apertura area expo e incontri tra espositori e visitatori professionali
* Seminari: incontri sul settore arredo design nel Sud della Florida
* Networking Cocktail: una serata diffusa tra gli showroom italiani di design del Miami Design District per continuare gli incontri tra operatori in compagnia di cocktail a base di liquori italiani.
