As we settle into Berlin again, we look back on a wonderful weekend in Nizza Monferrato, Piemonte!☀️
Our annual RFBerlin Nizza Workshop brought together two days of engaging presentations, academic exchange, great conversations, and, of course, fantastic Italian food and wine. A big thank you to everyone involved for making it such a success. We're already looking forward to next year! 🎉
