The research aims to study the management model of “Ente Valtellina e Valchiavenna per lo Spettacolo dal vivo” (a new cultural operator dedicated to the development of performing arts at a local level). Starting from an exhaustive desk analysis of the local system, the study focuses on:

  • a benchmark analysis to collect data on the organizational structure, the offer, the costs and results of similar initiatives in comparable territories;
  • the development of a business model;
  • the definition of the organizational structure and the elaboration of a business plan.

The study has been centered on two aspects: the territory (enhancement of already existing resources to offer to the local community a wide-ranging and qualitatively significant cultural program) and the tourism (the cultural aspects could become one of the assets to connote the area and foster tourism and congress tourism).
