2013-2019 // brief history
The festival started as a private initiative, developed by The Institute, but from the beginning it was supported by sponsors and partners, to whom we thank for their support. We are very pleased to work together with institutions and companies that share our values and mission.
In particular, we want to thank for the loyalty and appreciation that our main partners, institutional partners and sponsors have given us over the years.
