Services for Organizations

BUSINESSES AND INSTITUTIONS

We transform knowledge, talent, and vision into solutions that create lasting value. 

Design has become a cross-cutting strategic capability, essential for professionals and students across all sectors who want to lead innovation and tackle complex challenges in today’s world. 

POLI.design is where academic excellence, design expertise, and professional growth converge: a design education hub in Milan connecting universities, businesses, and professionals worldwide. 

We partner with companies and institutions globally to address real strategic needs through design — from product innovation to student education, from new business model development to positioning within the international design landscape. 

A space to experiment, collaborate with emerging designers, and turn ideas into tangible outcomes. 

Innovation Through Design

Looking to develop new solutions, rethink your business model, or adopt new design methodologies and tools?
Innovation Through Design is where POLI.design partners with companies and institutions to deliver concrete projects with quantifiable results. Within our hub, we pioneer new design approaches and explore alternative models by combining the academic expertise of Politecnico di Milano, applied design thinking methodologies, and guided experimentation.

Learning & Talent Development

Looking to upskill your teams, build design capabilities, or establish international educational partnerships?
Learning & Talent Development is our area dedicated to advanced education, hands-on project experience, and access to top talent. Flexible, customizable programs designed for companies, professionals, executives, educational institutions, and international students.

Design Ecosystem & Networking

Looking to strengthen your presence in the Italian and international design scene?
Design Ecosystem & Networking helps companies and institutions build visibility, meaningful relationships, and recognition within the design community — in Milan and across global networks.
