Gianluca Gorini

"We were very excited to introduce ourselves to the Italian tourism professionals," says Gianluca Gorini, Epoque Hotels' Director of Development in southern Europe."We elected Milan as the ideal location to launch our European campaign because the city is an important business hub as well as Italy's capital of fashion and the headquarters of the country's principal travel agencies and publishing companies."

The meeting thus consisted of numerous travel journalists as well as the local TV network Telenova, which filmed part of the conference and interviewed Gorini and Francesca Suereth, Epoque Hotels' Director of Operations: "I was so pleased to see that the media was interested in our company and in the properties of our collection," explains Suereth.
