For all the inquisitive, small and jealous minds here, my domain has always been HR and previously, Network Marketing related. The information I have asked for is for a friend who has collaboration with people important in Italy - a former minister running an NGO here and some other influential Italians. The Italians were keen in a joint venture or some business collaboration with sugar people here. I know all info is readily available; I was just seeking references in case someone knows anyone so there is a better level of trust. Anyhow, thank you very very much for all your feedback. They are due to fly back in a few hours' time which is why I said it was urgent.
