6th Edition of the Student and Teacher Fair

On October 23, the first stop of the 2026/27 Student and Teacher Fair took place in Turin, during which the Fondazione Imprese e Competenze per il Made in Italy—of which the Association of Italian Historical Trademarks is a partner—hosted the conference “Made in Italy Meets Young People: Stories, Skills, and the Future.”

The initiative provided an opportunity for the business world and the education sector to come together, with the goal of fostering a culture of entrepreneurship among the younger generation and encouraging them to pursue educational paths aligned with the needs of Italy’s manufacturing sectors.

Elisa Mazzetti, Export Manager at Mazzetti d’Altavilla—a member of the Association of Italian Historical Trademarks and a historic Piedmontese distillery founded in 1846—served as a testament to Italian entrepreneurial excellence. Representing the seventh generation of the family, Mazzetti shared her entrepreneurial experience, highlighting the value of generational continuity and the ability to blend tradition, expertise, and innovation.

Elisa Mazzetti’s participation offered students a concrete example of how a company’s history and legacy of expertise can address today’s challenges, helping to convey the value of Italian craftsmanship to future generations.
