international racing week, the National Gallery Singapore hosted <strong>\u201cFormula Italia \u2013 Italian genius beyond the track\u201d<\/strong>, an initiative promoted by the <strong>Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation<\/strong>, in collaboration with the <strong>Embassy of Italy in Singapore<\/strong> and <strong>Vogue Singapore<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">The event celebrated the <strong>extraordinary relationship between Italian creativity, design, innovation and high-performance engineering<\/strong>, exploring how Italian ingenuity extends far beyond the world of motorsport.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">At the heart of the initiative was the <strong>Asian premiere of the Italian documentary \u201cFormula Italia: Genius Beyond the Track\u201d<\/strong>, a journey into the origins of Italian motorsport creativity and passion, exploring the technological expertise \u2013 both visible and invisible \u2013 and the human ingenuity that have made Italy synonymous with excellence both on and beyond the racetrack.<\/p>\n<p

female racing driver<\/strong>, moderated by Vogue Singapore, exploring <strong>creativity under pressure, resilience, leadership, technological progress and the pursuit of excellence<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">An important underlying theme was the role of <strong>women in motorsport and high-performance industries<\/strong>, with a focus on the contribution of female talent and leadership in traditionally male-dominated fields, as well as the importance of inspiring a new generation to see technology, innovation and motorsport as industries where their talent can thrive.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">The initiative brought together representatives from the <strong>creative industries, luxury sector, business community, institutions and media<\/strong>, creating opportunities for dialogue and networking between Italy, Singapore and the international
