Opening Ceremony

Sala dello Scrutinio- Palazzo Ducale, Piazza San Marco
Entrance Porta della Carta (Between Doge's Palace and Basilica of San Marco )

World Leaders in Politics, Economy and Science will address the audience on the impact of scientific progress on human society.
The Doge’s Palace or Palazzo Ducale, was the home of the Doges and the seat of the Venetian government from the ninth ventury to the fall of the Republic in 1797.
One of the most renowned monuments of the past has been chosen as the proper and most exclusive site for the Opening ceremony of a Confrence which looks at the future.

Welcome addresses: Umberto Veronesi, Giovanni Bazoli, Marco Tronchetti Provera, Chiara Tonelli, Kathleen Kennedy Townsend, Viktor Chernomyrdin

A Welcome Dinner will follow the Ceremony in the Court of Palazzo Ducale, from 8.00 to 9.30 p.m.

Concert at Teatro La Fenice
Thursday, September 22nd 2005 8.00 p.m.
Campo San Fantin

Teatro La Fenice, after the terribile fire that entirely destroyed it in January 1996 has been rebuilt “where it was” like a “Phoenix”, mythical bird whose name the theatre bears.
The theatre will host a private concert for the Conference participants: a very special setting of a magical evening for all music lovers.
