Through a partnership with Fondazione Cottino, the building will be home to the first campus dedicated to impact education. The plot is on space with a strong aesthetic and historical importance, the entrance being in Via Boggio. The building enhances the historical axis parallel to OGR, the former train repair workshop structure, and ends with new volumes facing the southbound open space. There a square – a shared space where students can gather and live – will be created. A conference room, a large exhibition area, a cafeteria and offices will be on the ground floor. While educational and relaxation areas will be created on the top floors, thus offering the opportunity to carry out different experimental and innovative activities.
