ROME
Location
The eternal City
It was the writer Tibullus who first christened Rome „the Eternal City“ in the 1st century BC. The nickname refers to Rome’s ability to seemingly transcend time and space. Over the centuries, the description has grown to become the city’s official name of honor.
Legend has it that Rome was founded in 753 BC by twin brothers Romulus and Remus. They were the offspring of the god Mars and the Priestess Rhea Silvia. Frightened that the twins would contest him for his throne, their Great Uncle Amulius had them abandoned on the banks of the Tiber river. There, they were found by a she-wolf who suckled them. Later, a swineherd discovered the boys and continued to raise them. In later life, Romulus and Remus wanted to establish a city at the site where they were found. Following a fight, Romulus killed Remus, and so the new city came to be named after Romulus.
Rome was in fact founded over the course of several centuries, starting around 800 BC, and was made up of the surrounding villages on the seven hills of Palatine, Capitoline, Aventine, Esquiline, Quirinal, Viminal and Caelian. Today, the city is home to some three million residents.
The Colosseum, St Peter’s Square and the Spanish Steps: Rome has many alluring sights to its name. Around every corner, you are met by magnificent buildings, verdant parks, luxurious shopping boulevards and high-class restaurants. The Eternal City tells stories of millennia gone by and yet still remains ever modern.
Congress Venue
AUDITORIUM DELLA TECNICA
In Eur, Rome’s famous business district, there is a venue where space and technology combine to give physical form to ideas and transform these into unforgettable experiences: namely, the Auditorium della Tecnica, the Congress Center of Confindustria.
Space also plays an important role in the interior of the Auditorium della Tecnica: the sophisticated creation of architect Pier Luigi Spadolini perfectly complements the building designed by architect Edoardo Monaco, and has been described as „architecture within architecture“.As soon as you cross the threshold, you are met by a combination of innovation and contemporary structures, technological innovations and artistic and functional lines; all this was improved further still during the congress center’s redesign between 2015 and 2016. As such, the building has played a key role in the conference industry, playing host to major national and international events.

Gala Night | 6th October 2023
Villa Miani
The Villa Miani was built for the Count Miani in 1837. Situated on the hill of Monte Mario, it was originally the residence of a noble Venetian family. Until the early 20th century, it served as an exclusive country manor. Nestled within an extensive, secluded park of lush greenery, the villa is set back from the hustle and bustle of Rome.
It provides a breathtaking view over the city and the nearby St. Peter’s Basilica. The lovingly restored stately home, with its opulent private rooms, terrace, garden and show-stopping banqueting halls, has long been the site of many important events. It offers the perfect blend of history and elegance in the neo-classical style, making it the perfect venue for the gala night.
The gala night is included in the booking package for participants and their registered accompanying guest(s).
We will be providing a shuttle service for this event.
Party | 7th October 2023
La Lanterna
La Lanterna is a venue in an exclusive setting in Rome. It is situated on the 4th floor of the former building of the military union at 157 Via Tomacelli. The magnificent terrace provides exquisite views over the cupolas of the Basilica dei Santi Ambrogio e Carlo al Corso. The standout feature is the glass and steel structure by architect MassimilianoFuksas, which makes it a distinctive landmark on the Rome skyline.
Its modern and characteristic lines add a modern flourish to the city center: A pearl of modernity enveloped in history and ancient architecture.
La Lanterna – not far from the Piazza di Spagna – is an easy walk from the city center. We round off the Symposium with a relaxed evening of cocktails, finger food and lounge music.
For information on ticket prices, please see the „Prices and packages“ page.
We will not be providing a shuttle service for this event.
