Let’s come together and hence celebrate the grand opening of BCCI Member 10X Athletics on Saturday 19th June from 3.oopm in Via Boscovich 14, Milan!

The Covid-19 pandemic has tested institutions in unprecedented ways and challenged the public’s trust in each institution—government, business, media and NGOs—to do what is right.

The 2021   Trust Barometer shows that business has a new mandate to lead in addressing societal challenges, while also reimagining the post-pandemic workplace and the social contract between employer and employee.

With some countries, particularly developed nations, are starting to take post-pandemic steps, a post-Covid era presents an opportunity for social and economic innovation to redefine how we live, work and collaborate and address an urgent set of challenges: an ongoing infodemic, growing inequality, continued racial and gender injustice, climate change and automation’s impact on the future of jobs and the workplace.

This thought-provoking panel discussion will bring together a group of experts to discuss insights from the latest Edelman Trust Barometer report: “The World After Covid.” The group will engage in conversation, exploring how CEOs and other societal leaders can define a post-pandemic agenda for their organizations, as well as the renewed role business has in making a positive impact on society.

The Edelman Trust Barometer has for more than 20 years studied the perception of Trust. The global communications firm believes that this is the ultimate currency in the relationship that all institutions—companies and brands, governments, NGOs and media—build with their stakeholders.

About the project

“The Renaissance Series – Sustainable Human Development” is a powerful series of webinars focusing on the individual and the new set of challenges we are all faced with as we operate in the new professional environment that has recently undergone significant twists and shifts. Covid, Brexit and a series of globally relevant social issues have contributed to changing the way we work, the way we communicate, the way we make decisions, in ways that no one had anticipated and without warning or time to prepare.

Dealing with what some called the “new normal” is not just a matter of how good we are at using new technological tools, but it encompasses a wide spectrum of little things which, combined, have the power of making our lives better or worse and impact on our ability to reach personal and professional goals.

With the Renaissance series, the Chamber aims at giving its members fresh, applicable and effective means of rising to the challenge and maximize one’s potential by selecting and engaging experts from each field who are uniquely equipped to provide the participants with food for thought and opportunities of individual human growth.

13 July 2021 17:00-18:00

Episode 1
“FROM VOICE TO ACTION”

Speaker: Luca Viscardi

Giornalista, scrittore e storico conduttore radiofonico, con esperienza trentennale in realtà di grande successo come RTL 102.5, Radio NumberOne, Radio RCS, PlayRadio. “La vita a piccoli passi” è il titolo del suo primo libro, dove racconta la propria esperienza durante la pandemia del 2020.

Partendo dalla dematerializzazione dell’individuo, che perde la sua fisicità e le sue caratteristiche distintive nell’incontro con l’interlocutore, Luca Viscardi ci guiderà in un percorso volto a trasmettere la nostra personalità e identità in maniera efficace anche in circostanze al giorno d’oggi quali gli incontri a distanza, dove molti degli elementi di relazione un tempo considerati fondamentali non sono più presenti. Il nostro Host ci parlerà della voce e delle sue infinite sfaccettature e potenziale, dall’alto della sua esperienza nel comunicare efficacemente a distanza con migliaia di interlocutori in modo personale ed emozionante. Non meno importante, si affronterà come far sì che l’incontro online non si concluda con la fine della call ma si converta in una call to action!

Episode 2
“NAVIGATING SOCIAL DILEMMAS WITH GAME THEORY”

Speaker: Robin Donald

A control engineer by profession, Robin Donald has for many years been a consultant in business development. Along with his wife, Chiara, they provide consultancy and training via Business Game Theory.

In our internet-driven world we enjoy and increasingly depend on our hyper-connected environment, but the complexity of the interactions in our work and domestic lives isn’t always easy to untangle: a game-theoretical approach can frequently shine a light on complex dilemmas. In this episode of The Renaissance Series Robin and Chiara will examine some of these cases and let you consider various solutions. The approach will be highly interactive, as the audience will participate in a multi-player non-competitive game, led by the Speaker. Through this unique opportunity you will be able to participate in a highly enjoyable and informative session illustrating the role of game theory in present-day social dilemmas.

Episode 3
“BRITISH MINDSET”

Speaker: Elisabeth Weingraber-Pircher

Elisabeth Weingraber-Pircher is an executive coach, experienced interculturalist, and leadership trainer. Having lived and worked in 12 countries on four continents (longest in Italy, Brazil, and the UK) she knows how to apply the latest theories in real-life business situations and support people and businesses in complex environments.

What matters to “the” British? What are decisions based on? How do “the” British interpret concepts such as “trust”, “fairness” and decide what is funny and what’s odd? How does it differ, if at all, from the rest of the world? Looking at these concepts from various cultural aspects will make it easier to build and maintain trust across borders, create buy-in and share some good laughs. It’s not a list of do’s and don’ts, rather an exploration of experiences and guidelines to real-life situations with a sprinkling of British humour.

Lo scorso gennaio è stata presentata – in concomitanza con il World Economic Forum di Davos – la ventiduesima edizione dell’Edelman Trust Barometer.

La ricerca, che ha coinvolto 36.000 consumatori in 28 Paesi ha evidenziato un ‘ciclo di sfiducia’, alimentato da Governi e Media, che minaccia la stabilità sociale. Al contrario, invece, l’istituzione Business è vista come una forza stabilizzatrice, in grado di affrontare le questioni sociali più critiche.Ancora una volta i dati mettono in luce le aspettative, che vanno ben oltre il profitto, riposte nelle aziende e nei propri leader e, di conseguenza, le crescenti responsabilità di cui sono investiti.

Ne discuteranno Fiorella Passoni, CEO Edelman Italia, e Steven Sprague, Presidente di The British Chamber of Commerce for Italy

We live in a world where data has become the basis for the activity of most areas of economic and social life. In addition to human generated data, the broad dissemination of new digital technologies is driving exponential growth of machine generated data.

Making innovative uses of this data will provide enormous development opportunities in society and will become the main source of increased productivity in business.

Celebrate International Women’s Day 2022 and #ChamberWomen with BCC Director General, Shevaun Haviland in conversation with BCC President, Baroness Ruby McGregor-Smith CBE.

Ruby McGregor-Smith CBE has served on the Board and as President of British Chambers of Commerce since 2020.

Other current Board roles include Chair of MindGym, Chair of the Institute for Apprenticeships and Technical Education, Non-Executive Chair of the Airport Operators Association, Independent Non-Executive Director of Tideway London, and Patron of the Employers Network for Equality and Inclusion.

Ruby’s distinguished career has seen her as one of a small number of female CEOs in the FTSE 250, having spent fourteen years at Mitie Group PLC and as its CEO for ten years.

Ruby was appointed CBE in 2011 for services to business and to diversity in business and became a life peer in 2015.

A huge advocate for the power of diversity in leadership and in boardrooms, we look forward to hearing more about:

• Her personal experience as she progressed through her career.
• Her thoughts on the need for systemic change for now and for future generations, and,
• What practical steps businesses need to take to instil a gender equal culture and environment in business.

The Chamber of Commerce Network across the UK and around the world is proud that we’re working every day to challenge stereotypes and break the gender bias. We have a huge number of female senior leaders, at both board and executive level, and we want to showcase their achievements to inspire future generations.

Join us for this event to hear from women leaders about their thoughts on what business can do to encourage more women into senior roles in organisations. And, as we look to the future, what can we do to influence business and shift mindsets.

Guy Masterson ‘s one-man-show written by Dylan Thomas celebrates a day in the life of a Welsh hamlet, Llaraggyub.

** Performed in English **

In this one-man-show, renowned British actor, Guy Masterson brilliantly recreates 69 characters of Dylan Thomas’s fictitious fishing village Llareggub – Bugger All, spelt backwards! He brings these funny, bawdy, sensual and sometimes sad characters to life using nothing but a wooden chair, dark glasses, creative lighting and a beautifully haunting soundscape by Matt Clifford.
Dylan’s incredible literary and poetic work was first made famous by the legendary celebrity film-star Richard Burton with his unforgettable BBC Radio recording in 1954. Guy Masterson (Burton’s nephew) has created a highly unique and memorable visual performance for the stage. Under Milk Wood has been performed over 2000 times around the world.

A show not to be missed for lovers of the English language.
105 minutes

Reviews:

“It’s a feat of multiple characterisation, impeccable timing, vocal dexterity and precise physical control, performed with tremendous sensitivity and panache!” (The Guardian)

“Absolutely wonderful, intensely therapeutic, intensely uplifting! Guy Masterson is something exceptional!” (BBC Radio Scotland)

Under the direction of Maestro Vincenzo Simmarano, the Milan-based choir, Canti Corum, will perform the renowned, British choral piece for choir and orchestra, by the famous, contemporary Welsh composer, Sir Karl Jenkins, called “The Armed Man – A Mass for Peace“, in concert on Tuesday 14th June 2022 in the Basilica di Santo Stefano, in Milan at 8:45 PM.

The concert, which had originally been planned for June 2020 and was postponed twice due to the pandemic, will now mark the 22nd Anniversary of the work which was commissioned by the Royal Armouries in 2000 and dedicated to the victims of the Kosovo crisis.

The concert will be a charity event in aid of the peace and humanitarian works of the Comunita’ di Sant’Egidio, specifically the “Progetti per la Pace” project.

Canti Corum has grown into a large international choir as many singers from all nationalities are coming together to sing this Mass for Peace. Some singers are even flying in from the UK just to sing, in what we believe will be a premiere performance of Sir Karl Jenkins’ work in Milan.

Canti Corum was established in 1998 by a group of music lovers from different backgrounds and musical experiences. It is made up of more than 30 singers led by director Vincenzo Simmarano, who is the author of the arrangement of some songs of the Choir repertoire. Canti Corum is committed to expanding its repertoire, carrying on that multifaceted and versatile features that make it stand out, giving a central role to polyphonic music, without neglecting the other aspects of cultured music as well. Its repertoire also includes folk songs, accurate a cappella performances and performances with instrumental accompaniment.

As this is a charity event, donations will be accepted at the door. Your generosity will go towards the “Progetti per la Pace” project of  the Comunita’ di Sant’Egidio.

Basilica di Santo Stefano Maggiore –  Piazza Santo Stefano – Milano
