Italy has historically spread worldwide its peculiar theories of restoration and conservation effectively guiding the international approach for preserving Cultural Heritage. Italy has also exported its craftsmen, artists, architects and engineers over time to deal with the most important monuments all over the World.
The Italian Restoration sector, substantially developed into an organic “industrial” system after the new Millennium, seems now ready to create its own strategies for promoting its model, materials, technologies, enterprises, specialized design offices and service societies worldwide.
The conference aims to present some examples of international cooperation, focused on the restoration design area, through the Internationalization Policies supported by the Italian Ministry of Economic Development (MISE) by its agency ICE-Italian Trade Promotion Agency and through other models of international cooperation and autonomous experiences.
Some example of international projects carried out by ICE Agency and Assorestauro from 2013 to 2016 are presented together with the future target Countries. Delegates from North America, South America, Iran and Lebanon has been invited to present the opportunities of increasing the involvement of the Italian enterprises in their own markets.
