Episode 10: Silvia Davi & Chris R. Vaccaro with Riccardo Riboni & Viola Migliori
For our final Renaissance Minds podcast episode of 2025, we were delighted to spotlight the co-founders of CulturaPaths, Riccardo Riboni and Viola Migliori, the visionaries behind an innovative Milan-based roots tourism company that blends in-depth genealogical research with fully customized travel experiences. Leveraging Italy’s unique distinction as the country with the most UNESCO World Heritage Sites, along with a global diaspora that traces its roots to all 20 Italian regions, CulturaPaths is redefining how families reconnect with their heritage. Their mission is to help individuals uncover their ancestry and experience the towns, traditions, and culture of their origins through personalized, meaningful travel itineraries. Tune in as Silvia and Chris sit down with: Riccardo Riboni, a passionate traveler and food enthusiast from Milan, whose professional background in economics and management spans global, multicultural organizations. Riccardo’s vision is rooted in uncovering Italy’s countless hidden treasures beyond the well-known tourist destinations. By bridging the gap created by Italy’s worldwide diaspora, he aims to create lasting value, strengthening connections to identity, roots, and heritage across borders. Viola Migliori is naturally curious and creative, with an international background shaped by living and working in several countries across various roles in the tourism industry. Through CulturaPaths, Viola seeks to help others cultivate a deeper sense of belonging by reconnecting with their ancestors and places of origin. Her vision centers on uniting people with their Italian heritage while promoting sustainable, authentic, and responsible travel experiences. We are also proud to share that @Renaissance_Minds’ Silvia Davi recently joined the CulturaPaths Advisory Board, helping to raise awareness of this compelling cultural concept and transformative travel experience.
