VENUETHE EVENT IS JOINTLY ORGANIZED BY FOUR
DEPARTMENTS IN THE CAMPUS “LEONARDO DA VINCI” OFTHE POLITECNICO DI MILANO CLOSE TO DOWNTOWN.
MILAN IS THE SECOND LARGEST CITY IN ITALY WITH ONEAND A HALF MILLION PEOPLE. ONCE THE CAPITAL OFITALIAN HEAVY INDUSTRY, MILAN HAS NOW A VERYDIVERSIFIED ECONOMY BASED ON HIGH-TECH, FASHION,INFORMATICS, BIO-SCIENCES, HIGH EDUCATION, LOGISTICSAND FINANCE.
MILAN IS A PLACE WHERE RESIDENTS AND VISITORS ARECOMING FROM ALL THE CORNERS OF EUROPE AND FROMEVERY CONTINENT, FOR BUSINESS, CULTURE AND TRADE.
THE SKYLINE OF THE CITY HAS CHANGED TREMENDOUSLYIN THE LAST TWENTY YEARS, WITH THE CONSTRUCTION OFTWO ARCHITECTURALLY OUTSTANDING DISTRICTS (CITYLIFE AND PORTA NUOVA) FULL OF TALL BUILDINGS,THEATERS, EXCLUSIVE SHOPS AND SPACE TO WALK ANDRELAX. THESE NOVELTIES INTEGRATE VERY WELL WITHSUCH RENOWNED PLACES AS THE GOTHIC CATHEDRAL(DUOMO), THE TEATRO ALLA SCALA AND THE GALLERIAVITTORIO EMANUELE, THE FIRST COVERED MALL IN THEWORLD BUILT AT THE END OF THE 19TH CENTURY!
