"We hope not only that other nations will be offended, but especially the other cities that have been visited and evaluated. Naples is truly the most beautiful place in the world to host a competition that is the most beautiful and fascinating in the world," Abodi declared. The Minister attributed this distinction not only to "the places that already exist," but also to the generosity of "nature and history."
The decisive factor in the choice, Abodi added, is that in Naples "the choice was made, as I said, not just for the present but for the future, the future of Bagnoli, which is an important part of the future of Naples, Campania, and the South. It will certainly be an inspiration for the entire nation."
The decision to host the prestigious sailing competition in Naples, and specifically in Bagnoli, highlights the desire to enhance an area undergoing redevelopment, projecting the city toward a future of development and innovation, with the America's Cup as a driving force for the entire South.
