Abstract

Piedmont and Turin consistently occupy the top places for economic indicators for the design sector at the Italian level. In this context, high-level productions and effective policies to support and promote design have arisen, as evidenced by the designation of Turin as a UNESCO Creative City of Design. However, today, the players in this area face a series of critical issues. The chapter analyzes the main elements behind these critical issues, highlighting how they can also be a stimulus for identifying actions, tools, and policies to support a key, creative, and rapidly evolving sector such as design.

Keywords: design, economy of culture, UNESCO creative city.
