Istituto Marangoni, to Celebrate 85th Anniversary as Higher Education Leader

Istituto Marangoni, to celebrate its 85th Anniversary as a leader in higher education, launches ‘House of Istituto Marangoni’, an innovative digital platform designed to showcase graduates’ fashion, art, and design projects from all the international schools of the network.

The digital platform, developed in collaboration with Vogue Italia, is a virtual and interactive experience constantly updated with multimedia content, virtual talks, and interactive events produced by Istituto Marangoni’s schools worldwide: Milano, Florence, Paris, Mumbai, Shanghai, London, Miami, Shenzhen.

A project stemming from the desire to promote new generations of talents, a mission shared by Istituto Marangoni, with its long experience in the academic field, and Vogue Italia with Vogue Talents, a scouting project launched in 2009, is a point of reference for creatives from all over the world, a network of people and activities that connects talents and companies, an authentic promoter of business and new perspectives on fashion.

“Digital transformation is one of the key assets of Istituto Marangoni’s strategy for the next years. House of Istituto Marangoni is the first of a series of initiatives to move forward in this direction. It was conceived before the COVID emergency, and today, it is a pivotal project that offers global visibility to the most valuable students’ projects,” states Stefania Valenti, Managing Director at Istituto Marangoni. “Innovative and user friendly, it’s a showcase to involve stakeholders of fashion, art, and design, to share the visions of contemporary creatives, a real “think thank” from where Istituto Marangoni’s students launch a strong message for a new start, with their unique style, spontaneous expression of Generation Z”.

For graduates of fashion (Fashion Design, Fashion Business, and Fashion Styling) and art and design courses, the ‘House of Istituto Marangoni’ platform offers a unique opportunity. It’s a chance to showcase their projects and have their work seen and appreciated by a global audience. With a particular focus on the best designers’ fashion shows of each school, this platform is a stage for their creativity and talent.

House of Marangoni platform will also hold exclusive interviews with Alumni, world-famous designers, and creative personalities who took part in the Enhancing the Future project, a series of talks about the future of the creative industry in the post-Coronavirus era.

As a mentor to international young talents, Istituto Marangoni is committed to fostering a responsible future. In line with this, we have set up a contest – ‘Toward a Responsible Future’ – to develop a project focused on sustainability. This is not just a chance to win one of the 14 scholarships with partial coverage of the tuition fee, but an opportunity to make a real difference and contribute to a more sustainable world.
