Professor Andrea Biondi is made Knight of the Order of the Star of Italy

Andrea Biondi, professor of EU law at King’s College London, was presented yesterday with the decoration of Knight of the Order of the Star of Italy, for exceptional academic merit and for his longstanding support of the embassy. The decoration was presented by the Ambassador Terracciano on behalf of the Italian president, Sergio Mattarella.

In the period leading up to the referendum on the UK’s leaving the EU, the Department of European Studies, which is directed by Professor Biondi, provided a point of reference and an important platform for discussion for both Italian and British citizens.

Professor Biondi has provided invaluable support to the embassy in organising events for official visits by a number of Italian government representatives, including the president of the Chamber of Deputies and the president of the Senate, as well as lectures and discussions with students on a range of subjects.

On all these occasions, Professor Biondi demonstrated great professionalism, dependability and a spirit of service.
