Baroness Elke Romana von Schilgen, founder of the C.C.I.

Born in Innsbruck (Austria) on 6.10.1955, she really had a cosmopolitan life as she lived in Monaco, London, Paris, Marbella, New York, Milan, Salzburg, Venice. At the Academy of Arts in Munich she studied Art History, painting and design. Here she also frequented the Doener Institute for restoration and the Tourism School. Then she moved to London where she worked as a top model. Successively she stated a co-operation as a restorer with the Albert and Victoria Museum and did important works in Austria and Germany with her own company. After a short stay in New York, where she organised meetings and events for an international company, she came back to London where she founded the International Cultural Club, which, for many years, has organised parties and Balls throughout Europe. Among many, we remember the Balls held in Montecarlo at the Rotschild villa, the first masquerade Ball organised during the Venice Carnival in 1987, the Gran Ball at the Lord Karoly’s castle in Hungry. Back in Salzburg, the organisers of the Festival asked her to work as a stylist to present her evening collection at the Festspiel Haus. She arrived in Venice in 1998 where she started a co-operation with Mr. Fabio Momo, president and organiser of the Venice Carnival. She died in Venice the 19.5.2006.

Born in Venice on 2.9.1952 he comes from a theatrical family. His parents have founded, more than 55 years ago, the most important company of the city. He also is an actor, stage director and play writer, activities to which he sided different positions within politic, the public administration, the computerisation of the cultural heritage and, on top of all, the organisation and the artistic direction of cultural events. After directing numerous theatre festivals in Venice, as well in English, he was designate president of the Committee for the organisation of the Venice Carnival which he directed from 1995 to 2002. Thanks to this activity, he received in 2001 the prize from the President of the Italian Republic.

She joined C.C.I. in 1999 while continuing her studies in Economy and Management of Tourism Services at the University of Venice. Starting the professional experience leaded by baroness von Schilgen, was very important for developing major skills and capacity in the coordination of the events.

Eva plays a key role in the daily running of the company while coordinating events from concept to completion. Working closely with the C.C.I. Director on the early stages of pre-production and concepts, she then assembles the project team to make the event happen.

Despite the Carnival events in Venice, over the years she coordinated several C.C.I. projects such as the Opening Ceremony of the “Mercato” Shopping Mall in Dubai, the Christmas Celebrations at the Pacific Place Hong Kong, the Inauguration Ceremony of the Venetian Macau, a 10 days “Italian Festival” in Sharjah and the Carnival Dream Show at the Casino du Liban.
