Cultural Tip
In Italy a business introduction is usually a bit more formal than in English. Adding a polite ‘Piacere di conoscerla’ after the self‑introduction shows respect. Avoid overly casual tones unless you already have a friendly rapport, and remember that the company name is not translated – keep it exactly as it appears in English.
