Potential for learning or transfer
Officina Creativa has created a unique pole of activities by giving to the city of Florence a center for artistic craftsmanship, a place where craftspeople can work, and where events referred to crafts could be held. This place could be developed everywhere in order to generate a specialized center where all the manifestations of craftsmanship find the right reason to be. Also, it generates a network of people and ideas that is not just a co-working space, but also a place for promoting and selling craft products, also with an international approach thanks to the B2B operators, consultants, the online presentations and the website. That is possible to be transferred elsewhere to enhance and promote the craft sector and its artisans.
