SPONSOR - Confindustria Como / ComON

Part talent-scouting initiative and part hub of European creativity, the ComON creativity week project, held every year in October, sees the city vibrate with creative energy, swathe itself in yellow, and host various exhibitions, events and design workshops.

The importance and value of ComON lies in its ability to involve the most talented European creative minds, triggering partnerships that will provide real support for the young designers' ambitions, bringing them into contact with the creative and manufacturing reality of one of the last productive districts still operating in Europe.

ComON's activities are focussed on assisting young designers to discover their own creative paths and to learn more about these great Italian textile companies based in and around Como, with its extraordinary natural beauty, traditions and history.
