Premio Afrodite – XVI Edition
In its sixteenth year, the Premio Afrodite has been celebrated at the magnificent Rome Cavalieri, a Waldorf Astoria Resort. A long pink carpet was rolled out for a procession of women, the sole protagonists who shone once again in the fields of audiovisuals, cinema, television fiction, and entertainment, as well as excellence in journalism and sports. The initiative honored women who have not only contributed to promoting professionalism among their gender but also highlighted social issues, led with great enthusiasm by Paola Delli Colli of the Premio Afrodite Board along with Stefano Meloccaro, journalist of Sky Sport 24.
