We present, in collaboration with ITS Academy, Republic of Longevity Talks, the public program curated by Marco Sammicheli, Director of Museo del Design Italiano of Triennale Milano, and Barbara Franchin, President of ITS Foundation, developed as part of the exhibition The Republic of Longevity. In Health Equality We Trust, part of the 24th International Exhibition. Through a series of talks, the cycle explores the themes explored by the exhibition, focusing on the concept of longevity and its measurement, also in relation to creative drivers such as fashion, design, graphics and art. The first meeting, Ministry of Purpose, is dedicated to the creative energy of contemporary design, which crosses passions, methods and memories, giving voice to those who renew its meaning and direction every day.
