It was a moment of immense honor and excitement as Matea Benedetti, the visionary founder of Benedetti Life, received an invitation to speak at a special private symposium held in the Vatican. Curated by the esteemed film director and producer, Lia Beltrami, the event featured the powerful 'Women's Cry' Art Exhibit, serving as a platform to amplify the voices of women and address pressing global issues.
Matea's speech at the symposium was dedicated to the themes of creativity, sustainability, and collaboration in fashion—an intersection where she has tirelessly championed ethical practices and eco-conscious initiatives. Her presence alongside esteemed individuals like Anna Klein, Giorgia Nigri, and Shanelle Gabriel underscored the significance of the symposium in convening global leaders from diverse sectors to discuss creating a more inclusive and sustainable future for all.
For Matea, the opportunity to share her views on the stage of the Vatican was not only a personal honor but also a testament to her commitment to effecting positive change in the fashion industry and beyond. Gratitude was extended to Cardinal Turkson, Prefect of the Pontifical Academy of Sciences & Social Sciences, for his role in bringing together such a diverse and influential group of speakers.
The symposium served as a catalyst for meaningful connections and collaborations, uniting individuals and organizations dedicated to making a difference in areas where women are particularly vulnerable. Matea expressed profound gratitude for the opportunity to contribute to the dialogue on environmental sustainability and to connect with fellow changemakers who are driving positive change worldwide.
As Matea continues her journey as a leader in sustainable fashion, her presence at the Vatican symposium serves as a poignant reminder of the power of collaboration, advocacy, and shared commitment to creating a better world for future generations.
