A 47 year old businessman from Turin, Paolo Damilano is deeply connected to the Piedmont region: his family has been at the helm of the historic Cantina di Barolo for four generations, and he has developed Sparea and Valmora mineral waters.
He has recently turned to the restaurant world with the renaissance of some of Turin’s historical brands, including the Pastificio Defilippis pasta makers at Via Lagrange 39 and the prestigious Bar Zucca, recently inaugurated on Via Gramsci.
In May 2013, Paolo Damilano has taken on a new challenge: to raise the profile of his beloved lands, Turin and Piedmont, through the world of film as the new president of the Film Commission Torino Piemonte.
