#WorthExhibition @ Milan Design Week 2024

The 68 projects awarded under the second call of the WORTH Partnership Project, funded by the European Union's COSME programme, will be unveiled at WORTH Exhibition during Milan Design Week, the world's largest annual design show.

From 16th to 21st April, all  68 outstanding projects selected from 25 different EU and COSME countries, featuring a collaborative effort of 161 partners, will showcase  their innovative and design-driven creations spanning sectors ranging from fashion, textiles, and footwear to leather and fur, furniture, interior design/architecture jewellery, and accessories.

The exhibition represents an extraordinary opportunity to discover how cross-border collaborations across Europe between designers, SMEs and tech providers  have successfully tackled challenges such as: circular economy, transition towards more sustainable production and consumption; advanced digitised manufacturing, digitised value chains and business models; social innovation and social inclusion; European cultural heritage preservation for social cohesion and well-being, reinvention of craftsmanship; unique and disruptive design approaches; use of innovative materials, transforming innovative ideas into reality.

We look forward to welcoming you at this year's new location in the heart of the dynamic Isola quarter: Bottega Immagine, at Via Carlo Farini, 60, Milan.
