Project ASK - DIR (Divisione Ricerche SDA)

The Varese Chamber of Commerce, in partnership with the Como Chamber of Commerce, Busto Arsizio Film Factory, the Scuole Civiche di Milano Foundation, Txt Polymedia Spa, and, for the Swiss side, the Locarnese and Vallemaggia Region and the Locarno International Film Festival, is the leader of the project Eventi in rete (Online Events), international network of operators and events. The project, which benefits from the financial support of the cross-border cooperation operating scheme IT/CH 2007-2013, aims at supporting collaboration, exchange and mobility between the economic operators and the cultural institutions of the Province of Como, Varese and the Locarnese del Canton Ticino Region that work to create cinematographic and multimedia products and services, communication and culture. Specifically, the project intends non only to stimulate the cooperation between the subjects, operating in such sectors, that focus on the territories of the two Italian provinces and of the Ticino Region, but also to diffuse the knowledge of existing events, define possible actions for the development of the sector, and encourage the matching between education and the market. Indeed, the sector represents a little known but valuable component of the territory of the Insubrica Region. It is strategic not only from the cultural point of view but also because of the economic impact it generates.
