EWBC 2009 Kick-Off Event in Genoa, Italy!

Exciting news! Our third Musketeer, Robert McIntosh, will be heading to Italy this summer to kick-off the 2009 European Wine Blogger Conference! Granted, we realize a weekend in Genoa is really “tough” and “gruling”, as he “suffers” through amazing Italian cuisine and wine, but he was courageous enough to step up for the team and make the “sacrifice” Well done Robert!

On Sunday, June 14, from 11.00 to 19.00 in Palazzo Ducale, Genoa, Vinix will host an open unconference a day before the Terroir de Vino wine fair. Vinix is an aggregator of wine communities both online and offline, where professionals and enthusiasts can talk about wine, food and networking, and was created by our EWBC alumni, Filippo Ronco.

The aim of the unconference is to open the floor to anyone interested in participating in the conversation as it pertains to food, wine and networking. You don’t need to be a member of Vinix to participate. You only need to interested in contributing to the conversation. There will be several sessions planned, such as Robert’s discussion on the EWBC 2009,  so as to make it worth your while, but if conversations seem to lean in another direction, the unconference model will adapt to wherever the participants want to go.

The event is free, but anyone who is able and willing to help with the logistics and planning is more than welcome to offer their services. Additionally, anyone who is interested in running a session, or attending the dinner, should contact Vinix as soon as possible.
