3. Buongiorno G’day Signori e Signore, Ladies and Gentlemen, my name is Giorgio Torchio, I am the CEO of Zero Mile Consulting in Sydney Australia and I will attempt in a few minutes to share with You our experience between Italy and Australia.
4. … not only a business experience, but an exchange between cultures, an exchange of practical knowledge between two very different nations, both geographically and in terms of lifestyle BUT!, which both have a common origin, a strong European foundation and especially Italian.
5. To convey all this information within 10 minutes and to share with you our past achievements together with our future exciting plans both here in Veneto in Italy and in Australia is a challenge I welcome!!
6. We will try to work by “flash”,-namely I will strike you with information and concepts that will help to focus the main aspects that are part of our way, our style of working and our thoughts. We will try to work by “flash”,-namely I will strike you with information and concepts that will help to focus the main aspects that are part of our way, our style of working and our thoughts.
7. Well, let me begin by defining the situation and to locate the subjects: Australia is 25 times larger than Italy, an extension into which we can fit the entire continental Europe.
8. land with incredible resources and I do no speak only about mining, which are certainly one of the largest on the planet, but also I want to talk about lifestyle, culture, sports and history.
9. Increasingly it is a reference for all of Asia and of course for the Southern region, for democracy, stability and sustainable development. We have in Australia one of the greatest examples of cosmopolitanism and at the same time a strong European imprint.
10. Certainly in the past Australia was located “Down Under”, in that place down there, but now it finds itself in the midst of the emerging countries of Asia and communication routes between Africa – India – Asia and South America.
11. Previously difficult to reach, but no longer-just apply your mind to the fact that the maiden trip made by the famous and prestigious European airline Airbus A380 flew FROM Sydney to Dubai.
12. I have travelled the World extensively and today, if I were to rank the best places where people live, work and eat well and enjoy an exceptional lifestyle certainly Australia has a prominent place. Today, most film productions are produced in the “Big Red” and the major world paying television stations are now Australian.
13. Australia is a country that “discovered” the Chinese long ago and that means that there is a very close and less conflictual relation than from us with huge benefits of trade between the two countries
14. I would also like to bring your attention that today when we talk about culture, we can not fail to be impressed by the fact that of the top 500 Universities in the World, the Australian position is extremely high. Unfortunately we can not say the same of our own and this is why I suggest to immediately commence successful and certainly most welcome active cooperation with those of the Australian continent.
15. Italy, for its part, has other equally important characteristics, such as small and medium industry, certainly throughout the food industry and much of the manufacturing sector.
16. Our reality, which also are very typical of this area and of the North East in particular, should only learn to interact more among themselves and with others. In Italy, we have professional skills that are not found in any other parts of world.
17. At Zero Mile Consulting together with our associated companies we have drawn on this infinite basin of unique technologies and experience for the majority of our new ideas and inventions. ADV Project Studio Associato Avv.to Trommacco I& S INNOVAZIONE & SVILUPPO
18. We are, in effect a group of Italians who sought how to combine ITALIAN creativity and technology with the typical freshness and mindset of Australia.
19. In short, we tried to find a place where there was a chance to grow and to have fun, but above all to be heard. The new technologies our innovations and also our desire for a better World closer to nature is a very strong and a well established principle in Australia.
20. Inevitably on this side, we still have to work hard in Italy, principally in certain areas of the peninsula and in particular with a different education towards young people.
21. Australia is also the country of justice. I remark on that -because of the legality we always talk a lot, and I mean that in the broadest sense, ranging from true competition and business development to the logical concept of respecting the laws and rules.
22. I would like to assure you that anyone who has ideas and who wants to accomplish something and who will raise the typical values of common life and respect, is welcomed and is encouraged in his work and life, taxes are paid, but they are also very reasonable and easily managed.
23. Within these rules there are also those dedicated to immigration, which is very well controlled and regulated and I can assure you that it is a formidable task to oppose these stipulations.
24. The fact remains that Australia is a young country, a place of opportunity, a place where life is good and one can focus on building something positive and permanent We here in Italy also have to attempt to implement some minor innovations in this field, but I leave, this difficult task to the local politicians as we will continue to create new technologies and innovative ways to redistribute the wealth produced on the markets.
