The Italian Design Day is a yearly initiative organized by the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation and its Diplomatic network together with the Italian Trade Agency. It aims at promoting the excellence of Italian design, highlighting its value as one of the key components of the “Made in Italy” and as a driving force of the Italian economic system.
The 6th edition of the Italian Design Day in Malaysia, which is organised by the Italian Embassy and the Italian Trade Agency, will be in a new format conceived by Ambassador Massimo Rustico: in essence, the Italian design through some of the most prominent Italian brands as testimonials.
