Are you planning on travelling to Rome for work? Get to know one of the world’s most storied cities in this comprehensive guide for business travellers.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Founded, according to legend, in 753 BC on the banks of the Tiber (by twin brothers Romulus and Remus), Rome has spent the better part of 3000 years at the centre of Western civilisation. From the seat of a republic that dominated the ancient world to the capital of a G7 nation, it has always been a city of immense power and defining culture.<\/p>\n

Rome’s transformation from ancient empire to modern city is what makes the city so compelling. The marble columns of ancient forums stand alongside the towering glass walls of the business district. The buzz of the financial and government quarters dissolves, just a few, winding streets away, into trattorias that have been feeding locals for generations and piazzas that have stood the test of time.<\/p>\n

But it’s not just its history that sets Rome apart. The city’s metropolitan GDP exceeds \u20ac100 billion, and it serves as Italy’s primary centre for government, public administration, media, and defence industries. It is home to the headquarters of major Italian and multinational corporations, and its proximity to the institutions of the European Union makes it a key destination for political-related business travel.<\/p>\n

In this comprehensive guide for business travellers, we help you navigate Rome’s unique business ecosystem, share practical tips for getting around, and highlight our top 3 things to see or do to make your trip unforgettable.<\/strong><\/p>\n
