The Innovators Project, organized by WPP - the most important communication group in the world of over 150 Companies - together with Amici della Triennale, wants to focus the attention of the Milanese economic and cultural community on innovative entrepreneurship to reward the audacity of the idea that becomes a concrete act and therefore a business, in the spirit that is proper to Triennale.

The Triennale di Milano, founded in 1923, is a cultural institution that brings together different languages of culture and contemporary creativity: architecture, design, visual arts, photography, fashion, performance, theater, music.
Throughout the year the Triennale organizes exhibitions, meetings, conferences and shows, involving national and international figures.
It is located at Palazzo dell'Arte and welcomes the Triennale Design Museum, the first museum of Italian design that every year presents selections of works and installations that are always new to offer the visitor new routes and points of view, and the Triennale Teatro dell'Arte, which gives space to the best of the Italian and international performance scene.



Amici della Triennale is a non-profit association aimed at individuals and Companies for the promotion of the Triennale's activities. Born in 2016 as a project within the Fondazione La Triennale di Milano, in June 2018 it was
established the Friends of the Triennale Association.

We are honored with the recognition, which once again rewards the commitment, seriousness and innovation with which PlayWood does business.
