IDEAS Italy

I.D.E.A.S. - Italian Dialogues on Excellence, Arts and Science – is a project of the Directorate General for Cultural and Economic Promotion and Innovation (DGSP) of MAECI (the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation).

The aim of the project is to tell the stories and to show the faces of an innovative, virtuous and polycentric Italy through five “documentary portraits” of Italian excellence in specific sectors of arts and knowledge (business and society; architecture and design; arts and heritage; science, research and innovation; performing arts).

I.D.E.A.S. gives back the image of a territory and a community committed to reflect on the major themes of the contemporary debate: environmental sustainability, progress, urban regeneration, social integration.
