In five years’ time it will be Italy’s turn to host the World Expo. Are there lessons to be drawn from Shanghai or is something completely different on the cards for 2015? The Shanghai World Expo 2010 closed on October 31 and, in the opinion of many pavilion directors, it has been and would remain one of the best expos ever. Since opening on May 1, over 240 countries and organizations presented their interpretations of the theme “Better City, Better Life.” As the Shanghai Expo turns into a memory, those responsible for organizing the next one, in Italy, are already on the case. The Italian Pavilion had an area dedicated to the 2015 event and it was here that its director Signor Ernesto Miraglia told China Today (CT) his thoughts on the upcoming Milan event and the one about to close in Shanghai.
