Organized by publishers Giubilei Regnani and Carta Canta, the two-day event will feature panels on geopolitics, economy, culture, and artificial intelligence. Participants include local and national figures such as Mayor Gian Luca Zattini, various parliamentarians, and journalists.

In Venice, the Sherbooks Festival will be held on September 26 and 27 at the Zenobia gym on Giudecca. This event focuses on independent publishing and includes book presentations, workshops, and talks.
