Entrepreneurs Meet Cagliari chose Aquarium in Torre Delle Stelle as the venue for its August 2025 meetup, turning one of southern Sardinia’s most scenic locations into a hub of bold ideas, shared stories, and future-facing dialogue.

The theme of the evening: “Destination: Sardegna – Local People, Global Talent”.

The event followed an interactive roundtable format, blending panelist insights with questions to the audience for an open, fluid exchange of perspectives.
Moderated by Chris Verbick, the session featured three inspiring voices: Nathalie De Clercq, entrepreneur and founder of multiple ventures, now transforming Torre Delle Stelle into a cultural and creative hub; Eva-Noelle Fassbender, founder of “Italy Exit,” a platform exploring Italy’s identity and evolution on the global stage; Michele Collu, a Sardinian native and former Silicon Valley lawyer who has returned to invest in his homeland.

The conversation moved from personal journeys to collective insight, with questions like: “If Sardinia had a global tagline, what would it be?” “What’s one skill you brought back from abroad?” and “How do you reconcile the local pace with global business demands?”

Key themes:

Navigating cultural barriers and building bridges;
Reimagining Sardinia as more than a tourist destination;
Crafting a narrative of the island that is both true and forward-looking.

Audience participation was vibrant, and the room buzzed with new connections and mutual inspiration.
The evening closed with networking and drinks under the stars — the perfect setting to reflect on a powerful exchange of ideas.
Aquarium in Torre Delle Stelle once again proved to be the ideal venue for hosting meaningful conversations about the future of Sardinia and the people shaping it.
