The Los Angeles Italia – Film, Fashion and Art Festival has confirmed one of its most prestigious and strategic partnerships for 2026, with Intesa Sanpaolo once again returning as official sponsor and institutional partner of the festival, which will take place in Hollywood from March 8 to 14, at the heart of Awards Season.
Intesa Sanpaolo’s continued presence within the Los Angeles Italia project represents far more than traditional sponsorship. It reflects a long-term alliance between finance, culture and the audiovisual industry, aimed at supporting the international promotion of Italian excellence and the Made in Italy brand. Within this framework, Nicola Corigliano, a key figure at Intesa Sanpaolo for initiatives focused on Italian enterprises and international development, plays an important role in strengthening the dialogue between Italy’s creative and industrial ecosystem and the global marketplace.
Founded by Pascal Vicedomini and promoted by the Capri in the World Institute, the festival has grown into one of the most respected platforms of the Awards Season, where cinema, fashion, music and art converge with international industry leaders in the heart of Hollywood. In this context, Intesa Sanpaolo’s support — also through the work of Nicola Corigliano — has helped turn Los Angeles Italia into not only a cultural showcase, but a strategic meeting point for artists, producers, institutions and investors.
For the 2026 edition, the partnership continues to reflect a broader vision focused on the development of cultural and creative industries, now recognized as a crucial driver of Italy’s global competitiveness. Hosted once again at the iconic Chinese Theatre, the festival offers a unique platform to present not only Italian films, but the entire ecosystem of talent, innovation and entrepreneurship that supports them.
At a time when the global competition for visibility, investment and influence in the entertainment industry is more intense than ever, the ongoing commitment of Intesa Sanpaolo ensures the Los Angeles Italia Festival maintains its credibility, strength and international reach, reinforcing the cultural bridge between Rome and Hollywood and positioning Italian creativity at the center of the global audiovisual landscape.
