Today the two great international events organized by Slow Food have started in Turin: Terra Madre, the big forum of the food communities, and the Salone del Gusto, the important market event on the quality of food. To give the greatest relevance to these two events, Slow Food and the Region of Piedmont – in collaboration with Digital Streaming Media and Borrega service –have launched a video service to record all the paramount images from the manifestations, and will put them online with broadcasting quality, and at the disposal of the media from all over the world that want to report about these events on eco-gastronomy. This exclusive and free programme to download and to use videos is launched now with the first images from the opening ceremony of the Salone del Gusto 2006, with speeches by Carlo Petrini, President of Slow Food; Mercedes Bresso, President of the Region of Piedmont; and Paolo De Castro, Minister of Agricultural, Food and Forestry Policies.
