Made-in-Italy

Why Made in Italy is not only fashion

Made in Italy and Italian manufacturing is synonymous with excellence. Italian products are known for their quality, design, and attention to detail.

Italian companies have a long tradition of craftsmanship, which has been passed down from generation to generation.

This tradition of excellence is reflected in a wide range of products, from fashion to furniture, from food to wine, from cars to electronics.

The Excellence of Italian Manufacturing

Italian Design and Craftsmanship

Italian design is recognized worldwide for its elegance, sophistication, and creativity.

Italian designers have made significant contributions to the fields of fashion, interior design, and product design in the most complex industries such as glass blowing, leatherworking, and ceramics.

Excellency in Tech

Excellency in Tech is crucial to Italian manufacturing. Italian companies invest in technology to stay ahead of competition, improve product quality, and reduce environmental impact.

Leveraging their tradition of craftsmanship, collaborations with universities, and research centers, they adopt new technologies to innovate. This has been vital to the growth and success of all the Made In Italy.

The Future of Italian Manufacturing

The Italian manufacturing industry faces many challenges, such as increasing competition from emerging markets, rising production costs, and changing consumer preferences.

However, Italian companies are adapting to these challenges by investing in innovation, technology, and sustainability.

Many Italian companies are also expanding their international presence by entering new markets and forming partnerships with foreign companies.

Made in Italy: our conclusions

As we said, the “Made in Italy” represents excellence, quality, and craftsmanship in manufacturing.

Italian companies are known worldwide for their unique products and design, which are the result of a long tradition of craftsmanship and attention to detail.

There are many examples of companies excelling in what they are doing, such as Giovanni Rana for food, Versace for fashion and Reco Group in electric heaters, which are innovative, energy-efficient, and environmentally friendly.

Made in Italy is still today a symbol of excellence that is recognized worldwide.

Classic brands we need to rediscover

Once upon a time, there was the made in Italy… whether times change and many of the most famous Italian brands have been bought by foreign companies, the most historical ones seems not having lost their verve as they are always liked all around the globe.

Unfortunately, Italy has never been able to compete with others in terms of competitivity, and there are many reasons for that.

Classic brands to rediscover

Yet classic Italian brands have always been the embodiment of excellence in a variety of industries. But what are the most famous Italian products in the world?

Here are some classic brands and brands that should be rediscovered.

Gucci

Founded by Guccio Gucci in Florence in 1921, this brand has long been one of the pillars of Italian luxury fashion and beyond. 300 stores around the world, a massive turnover and… a property that is no longer Italian. Currently, the company is part of the Gucci Group, a division of the French company Kering also based in Beijing.

Ramazzotti

The Amaro Ramazzotti was born in Milan in 1815 and soon became the brand par excellence of this kind of liqueurs. It is a product that is also very successful abroad (especially in Germany) and since 1985 is part of the French multinational group Pernod Ricard.

Buitoni

Buitoni is a historical company founded in 1827 in Sansepolcro. Despite the fact that its brand is no longer entirely Italian (it is under the control of the Swiss multinational Nestlé with the participation of the Italian Newlat), it remains one of the most important Italian brands in the food sector.

Giovanni Rana

He certainly deserves a place on this list Giovanni Rana. The company, founded in 1961 as a small workshop for the production of handmade tortellini near Verona, is now a well established brand. Currently known as Gruppo Pastifici Rana, it is one of the main world leaders in the sector.

Naturally, we have excluded brands such as Ferrari and Ferrero from the list, which would be too obvious. Beyond that, it’s just a small taste of what Italy has to offer.

Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin put on sale their London house

Gwyneth-Paltrow-Chris-MartinThe Hollywood star Gwyneth Paltrow and her husband Chris Martin, leader of Coldplay band, moved permanently to Los Angeles. The commitments of the couple, in fact, are mainly in the USA and their villa in London, in the district of Belsize Park, is an excessive luxury even for a couple of the star system.

The princely mansion is on sale now for £ 7 million. Featuring 33 rooms, the villa is the result of subsequent extension works. Ten years ago, in fact, the couple had bought it for “only” £ 2.5 million (according to the UK magazine Rockol UK) and the only part of the house were the central part, previously owned by the actress Kate Winslet.

After the birth of their children, Apple and Moses, the couple had the need to expand the space, buying for a further £ 3 million two adjacent properties and making then a single, gigantic, house. Their neighbors have never had much sympathy for the couple who, in addition to the work on their property, also created a huge pool in the back and knocked down several trees to park their cars more easily.

Now, due to the fact that they work mainly in the USA and thanks to the relaxed atmosphere of a city as LA, the couple decided to move permanently to California. Gwyneth has decided to move closer to herfamily (she was born in Los Angeles in 1972). That’s why the house in London is not really needed anymore.

Anyway the couple seems does not want to leave completely London, as rumors close to the actress and her husband says that the two are looking for a new (and smaller) house in London, probably in the Regent’s Park area.

Shakira and Rihanna together in a new music video

Shakira-RihannaShakira and Rihanna have released the video of their duet. The colombian singer and the Barbadian star have recorded the video for the single “Can’t Remember to Forget You,” which appears in the Shakira’s tenth album.

In the video seems like the two stars amaze in some exotic location.
Both of them are native of the Caribbean and it seems that the clip is a sort of tribute to their native land. In the video, the two stars are dancing and shaking in malicious hugs while smoking a cigar in a tent.

“Working with her was a mirage for me”, Shakira said in an interview held by Glamour magazine for the February issue. She says “Shakira is one of the best woman on the planet earth. In the end we are both Caribbean. No coincidence that the feeling between us was immediate. He taught me a few steps of dance, she was a sweet and reassuring teacher”.

About a year ago Shakira became the mother of the little Milan, who will turn 1 the next February 22. For her, motherhood was an overwhelming experience that has completely changed her life and also her approach to music.

The colombian singer says “fortunately, after publishing my latest album ‘Sale el Sol’ I went into one of the happiest phase of my life. It was a period of change, rebirth, discovery of myself, then I became a mother, an experience that has completely changed, for the better, my world”.

Shakira and Rihanna fans will appreciate for sure this new video of their favourite artist.

Britney Spears and Lady Gaga will duet

Britney-Spears-Lady-GagaRivals? Perhaps someone may have said that. But sometimes also rivals can find a common point and start to point together to the same direction. This is what will happen (not 100% sure but there are good chances) to Britney Spears and Lady Gaga, who should join very soon in a musical duet.

It’s not a bit of time that rumors about a duet by Britney Spears and Lady Gaga are on the internet. The official confirmation of this unexpected collaboration comes by Britney via a tweet on her official account: “Little Bird told me something cool today. Se you soon Lady Gaga”. The greeting given to Lady Gaga (“see you soon”) seems to be the confirmation of an artistic collaboration that could revolutionize forever the history of pop music.

Unfortunately this is all we know at the moment about the possible duet between Lady Gaga and Britney Spears. The two queens of pop have recently given birth to their latest disc so probably this duet will remain a single episode and won’t be an entire album. Of course, those are only speculations and no-one can say nothing sure today about future intentions of those two singers.

One last thing still missing is the date when the duet will be taken. Britney’s and Gaga’s fans, of course, can’t wait for this moment and we, as music lover, too. What we hope is that this duet will really be taken within 2014. It will be truly interesting and, who knows, maybe we can see the birth of a new and more continuative co-operation.

Take That back to work: Robbie Williams will be there?

Take-ThatOn Twitter, Howard Donald and Gary Barlow has announced that Take That are back to work with new projects and sonorities. Fans of the band will be happy without any doubt, unfortuntely there is one (big) doubt: there is still uncertainty about the return of Robbie Williams.

Take That begin to get serious. The news that many were waiting for has arrived: the band is back. On the social network Howard Donald has posted an unambiguous message: “in the studio with the boys! I’m excited, we will do our best to produce an incredible album”. The “boys” are obviously Gary Barlow, Jason Orange and Mark Owen, three of the original five of Take That. They are still waiting to see the real intentions of Robbie Williams, in the meantime they are working hard. Barlow has abandoned his experience on X Factor to concentrate excusively on Take That reunion.

What is the timeline for this amazing reunion? January is the month to be back in studio and a new tour for the following year, 2015.

Everyone is waiting for Robbie. The british singer, without any doubt the one who, after Take That experience, had more success with soloist singer and he is still waited by his ex-band. Robbie of course needs to be quick in taking his decision as the Take That will start to work quickly and they cannot wait too long.

Of course, to return to work with his colleagues, Robbie need to take a break from his solo career. What will be his choice?

The song will be available exclusively on Apple’s digital store for one of the main sport event in the USA, the Super Bowl, which promise to be, as every year, highly spectacular. As it has been officially announced on U2 website, the band will present the song during the Super Bowl.

If the irish band should win this prize it will be the second one won with this song after the recent Golden Globe Award.

Justin Bieber out of the USA, the online petition

Justin-BieberJustin Bieber out of the USA? More than 100,000 people have signed the petition to bring Bieber (who is canadian) out of the USA. The reason? His latest arrest in Miami on early Tuesday morning ( January 23th) as the police kept him in an illegal drag racing. Policemen also referred to smell alcohol in the air.

The petition is named “Deport Justin Bieber and revoke his green card” and, on the White House’s website, has more than 100,000 signatures.By the US law, when a petition reach 100,000 signatures it will be submitted to Obama’s staff, who will need to respond. The goal should have been reached by Febrary 22nd, but only few days were sufficient to get the milestone.

In this 2014 is already the second time Bieber has problems. At the beginning of this year he was questioned about the egging of one of his neighbour’s house, in Calabasas, California.

As we can read on the motivation related to the petition, Bieber is a wrong representation of the pop culture. He is reckless, dangerous, destructive and he abuse drugs. At the end he is a very negative example for our youth. Other than that, which his behaviours he put in serious risk the safety of our people. We (the american) want Bieber out of our society.

Hard words those about the young singer and actor. Justin Bieber is one of the most famous singer in the world, much loved by teenagers. He is famouse since he was a child and this is a clear case that help us to understand what money and fame can do to a person if they’re not controlled: total ruin.
