Baku will host Day of Italian Design and Architecture, where Italian masters will share their professional secrets, Trend Life reported.

Italian Ambassador to Baku Giampaolo Cutillo informed that the event is scheduled for early March.

Workshops led by famous Italian designers and architects, as well as presentations devoted to modern trends will be held as part of the event.

Along Baku, the Day will also be held other major cities of the world.

Last year, Baku hosted a series of events as part of the first World Week of Italian cuisine, the Week of Italian Fashion, Week of the Italian language, and other several events.

Being one of Azerbaijan's major partners in Europe, Italy has been Azerbaijan's number one trade partner for the last eight years. It is the largest importer of Azerbaijani goods.

Currently, about 45 Italian companies are operating in Azerbaijan in insurance, banking, trade, and other areas.

Italy has become the biggest trade partner of Azerbaijan in importing crude oil and oil products and mainly exports pipes for the oil sector, tobacco, leather and furniture to Azerbaijan.

Baku and Rome are strategic partners in the energy sector. Italy, whose scanty natural resources traditionally make the country dependent on import has been a key partner for Baku. Since 1999, Italy has begun to receive a large part of Azerbaijani oil exported through the Baku - Supsa pipeline and then through the Baku - Ceyhan. This made Italy the number one partner for Azerbaijan and this position is maintained until today.
