Event Profile
Printer-friendly versionThe Francoli Cup is an International Cocktail Contest reserved to the students of hotel and tourism schools, which strives to create an exchange of experiences and an opportunity to learn about the responsible use and quality of alcoholic beverages.
The investment is long term with the purpose of bringing together the worlds of School and Work, which are often remote and conflicting. The program for the school, which has been developed along with appealing discussions on interesting topics, is aimed at encouraging students, professors and those working in the field. With this in mind, a rapport with the AEHT (European Association of Hotel and Tourism Schools, www.aeht.eu), with the Course of Tourism Science at the University of Milan - Bicocca (www.unimib.it) and with the endorsing sponsors has been developed.
The prizes are awarded in the form of Scholarships, providing a tangible contribution to the professional growth of the winners and for the most enterprising schools, they offer an opportunity for development.
The Distillerie Francoli (www.francoli.it), the first grappa producing company to be a part of ImpattoZero® (www.impattozero.it), has sponsored the event since 1996. Since 2007, they have been committed to a campaign to offset the CO2 emitted during the contest with an equivalent reforestation in Costa Rica.
