ABOUT US
"Mamma Jumbo Shrimp was born as an umbrella brand for podcasts, books, maps and videos. Over time, it has turned into a larger project: an agency that transforms all these formats into communication, promotion and training tools for the world of wine."

STEVIE KIM
Born in Korea and raised in the United States, Stevie Kim lives in Verona, a world-renowned wine production and trading center. She attended NYU Leonard N. Stern School of Business – B.S. with a dual major in International Marketing and Economics. After settling in Italy, she obtained an MBA from the School of Economics and Management at Bocconi University and, subsequently, a postgraduate specialization in Wealth Management from the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania. During the pandemic, she also began the path to obtaining the WSET diploma at the Weinakademie Österreich in Rust, Austria.
As Managing Partner of Vinitaly, Stevie directs a series of important brands and events related to Vinitaly on behalf of Veronafiere, one of the largest wine and spirits fairs in Europe. Among these prestigious events are OperaWine, in collaboration with the US magazine Wine Spectator, wine2wine Business Forum, 5StarWines - the Book, and Vinitaly International Academy (VIA). From conception to implementation, Stevie has transformed these events into important landmarks in the international wine calendar.
Recognizing its potential as a long-form storytelling tool and its ability to create a long-term relationship with a global audience, in 2017 Stevie launched Italian Wine Podcast, the first podcast in English dedicated exclusively to the world of Italian wine. The podcast now broadcasts seven days a week and recently surpassed six million listens, providing a invaluable platform to reach and engage with a worldwide audience of wine enthusiasts and paving the way for a number of fruitful collaborations and revenues.
IT TAKES A FRESH LOOK TO STAND OUT FROM THE CROWD. WE DON'T WANT YOU JUST TO FEEL DIFFERENT, BUT UNIQUE IN THE WAY YOU TALK ABOUT YOURSELF.
Stevie Kim, Italian wine evangelist and founder of Italian Wine Podcast, is the driving force behind the MJS agency with its innovative method of communication.
