CCIB Participates in Study in Italy 2026 in Sofia

On 17 October 2026, the Italian Chamber of Commerce in Bulgaria (CCIB) participated in the 17th edition of Study in Italy, the university fair dedicated to higher education opportunities in Italy, organised by Sky-Lines and Uni-Italia at the Interpred Conference Centre in Sofia.

The event was held with the participation of the Embassy of Italy in Bulgaria and the Italian Cultural Institute in Sofia, in collaboration with CCIB and Confindustria Bulgaria. It brought together numerous Italian higher education institutions and welcomed over 1,000 visitors.

Bulgarian students and their families had the opportunity to explore the academic programmes offered by Italian universities, learn about degree courses taught in Italian and English, admission requirements, scholarships and opportunities for academic and professional development. Particular attention was also given to institutions specialising in fashion, design and creative disciplines, reflecting Italy’s internationally recognised educational excellence.

The fair provided a valuable platform for dialogue and exchange, highlighting the importance of education and cultural cooperation in strengthening bilateral relations.

Through its participation, CCIB reaffirms its commitment to fostering cooperation between Italy and Bulgaria, supporting initiatives that promote talent, skills development and new opportunities for younger generations.
