The Round Table series, organized by the Honorary Consul of Italy to North Carolina and sponsored by CCI-NC, provides the opportunity for professionals in technology and innovation to engage in a meaningful discussion about their industries. Each year, a different focus or industry is selected to highlight the achievements of Italian companies right here in North Carolina.

​

It also serves to inform North Carolinians about

Italian FDI in the State, and how these companies are leading the way in their perspective fields.

​

Held at universities and places of learning throughout NC, the goal is also to engage students and foster opportunities for internships or job prospects. This feeds into our Italian language scholarship program as well - by learning Italian, the next generation can forge a path with these innovative companies right here in North Carolina!
