On 8 September 2026, around 60 members, partners and friends gathered at Grand Hyatt Erawan Bangkok for A Taste of Italy, a special evening marking the second anniversary of Bangkok GRAD Business Club.
For two years, Bangkok GRAD has brought together people from different professions, cultures and communities through friendship, open dialogue and practical business connections. Our anniversary evening reflected that spirit: warm, welcoming and designed for conversations that continue long after the event itself.
Organised by Bangkok GRAD in collaboration with the Thai-Russian Chamber of Commerce (TRCC), the celebration followed more than six weeks of preparation and coordination. We extend our special appreciation to TRCC President Vitaly Kiselev and Vanida Kho for their work in organising the evening, and to Diego Sala for developing the original concept behind the dinner.
Chef Gabriele Olivieri led guests on a culinary journey through Italy’s regional traditions. From Emilia and Piemonte to Veneto, Tuscany, Sardinia and Puglia, every course introduced a distinctive part of Italy and was paired with a wine from the corresponding region.
We are deeply grateful to our wine sponsors, Vinum Lector Co., Ltd. and Officina del Prosciutto Co., Ltd., for their generous contribution of Italian wines. Special thanks go to Marc-Andre Muller and Marco Penna for their expert presentations and for introducing the wines selected to complement Chef Gabriele’s dishes.
We also thank the team at Grand Hyatt Erawan Bangkok for their professionalism, attentive service and support throughout the evening.
The second-anniversary celebration also opened a new chapter for Bangkok GRAD. We warmly congratulate Egor Glukhov on becoming President of the club and wish him every success in leading Bangkok GRAD forward.
A Taste of Italy was ultimately about more than cuisine and wine. It was a celebration of the community we have built together — one in which friendships grow, business relationships begin and people from Bangkok’s international community feel genuinely welcome. Thank you to every member, partner and guest who made the evening memorable. We look forward to the next chapter of Bangkok GRAD together.
