🏛️ Rome opens its doors to WILL! 🌍✨
Over 100 legal professionals and lawyers from 25 countries gathered in the heart of the Eternal City for an extraordinary event!
The grand opening ceremony for the Rome edition of the WILL Global Convention 2026 and the 5th WILL Italia National Congress took place in the stunning setting of Palazzo Valentini, receiving a warm and triumphant welcome from the Metropolitan City of Rome Capital.
A special note of gratitude goes to Executive Councilor Cristina Michetelli—a fellow attorney and invaluable ally—who enthusiastically embraced our initiative, underscoring Rome’s commitment to building and strengthening an international network of top-tier professionals.
Following the solemn rendition of the Italian National Anthem and the WILL Anthem, official welcoming remarks were delivered by the Mayor’s delegate. Opening addresses were then given by Marco Buscema (Founder of WILL), Francesca Caretta (President of WILL Italia and Board Member of WILL), and Fabrizio Modoni (Leader of WILL Lazio) to officially kick off the convention.
📍 Why Rome? This year, we chose the Capital to honor the 70th anniversary of the Rome-Paris twinning: following a wonderful first stage in Paris, our network continues to reinforce its global ties.
🎁 The gathering concluded on a high note with a symbolic exchange of institutional gifts: we presented the authority with our official pennant and received in return an exquisite handcrafted, custom-minted art plaque depicting Palazzo Valentini, sealing this wonderful partnership. 🤝
✨Our heartfelt thanks to the Metropolitan City of Rome Capital, the Mayor, and Executive Councilor Michetelli for their exceptional hospitality, as well as for highlighting our event across their official website and communication channels!
