Biella, nestled in the Alps of northern Italy鈥檚 Piedmont region, has a rich history dating back over a millennium. Once a hub for wool and silk production, the city faced economic challenges in the 1990s due to global competition. However, it has since become a center for sustainable fashion, emphasizing quality and environmental values. Our study trip will explore Biella鈥檚 transition and delve into the strategies, branding, and sustainability practices of the Piedmont and Lombardy regions. We鈥檒l also visit Turin and the Fiat Lingotto District for added cultural immersion and insights into industrial revitalization.
