The European School of Economics collaborates in a special way with Relais & Chateaux Il Bottaccio in Forte dei Marmi, Italy. Our Founder and President’s first such venture of its kind, Il Bottaccio became a member of the prestigious association of privately owned elite properties and restaurants over 30 years ago after an unprecedented mere three years of activity. Though it now boasts around 500 members in 60 countries, at the time there were less than thirty in the Italian delegation. Il Bottaccio is now also a successful events business in London, and fully embodies our Founder’s philosophy – Visibilia ex Invisibilibus (the visible comes from the invisible), and is truly a place where profession blends with emotion and, meeting with intuition is elevated to Art. The destination of many culinary students, Il Bottaccio collaborates with the Cordon Bleu and the Culinary Institute of America among others, and has been the undisputed favorite destination of our interns looking for a career in luxury and boutique hotels.
