During EXPO Milano 2015, the largest event ever organized about food and nutrition, LUISS will engage its students in a series of events dedicated to food culture and the discovery of flavors from Italian and international gastronomic traditions.
The series of tasting events, each dedicated to a specific food or drink, aims to highlight the most commonly consumed goods and to expose students to new gastronomic experiences.
Company presentations will not focus simply on product demonstrations but also on the company’s history and the product’s position within its respective market.
The LUISS dietician will be at every event to offer advice about the correct use of the product and how to make it a part of a healthy, balanced diet, paying special attention to the theme of eating seasonally.
The events will take place in the Viale Romania cafeteria, from 6:30 p.m. until 8:00 p.m.
To participate in the events and tastings, send an email from your LUISS account to attivitaculturali@luiss.it with your telephone number and the name of the event you would like to attend by October 2, 2015. Space is limited.
To allow as many students to participate as possible, students may register for only one event and ask to be put on a waiting list for others.
