Design Talks
United for Progress
April 23 2021
There are many red threads that bind Audi to the city of Milan: from the passion for progress to that for the avant-garde towards the creation of sustainable mobility. It is for this elective affinity that, for the second time, Audi has chosen to be the main partner of Interni Designer's Week on the occasion of Milan Design City, enriching the cultural schedule of the event with a work by MC A Mario Cucinella Architects, the installation United For Progress. "United For Progress" was inaugurated with a discussion, moderated by the journalist Giangiacomo Schiavi, which saw the interventions of Gilda Bojardi, director of Interni, Giuseppe Sala, mayor of Milan, Alida Forte Catella, CEO of Coima Image, Mario Cucinella, architect and winner of the MIPIM award in the green building category, and Fabrizio Longo, director of Audi Italia. The theme is Milan, the capital of design, today also at the forefront of sustainability and mobility issues. A moment that reconfirms the city of Milan in its central role in the field of international design, starting from what it does best and its great values: creativity, know-how, sustainability and innovation. The following took part in the inauguration: GIUSEPPE SALA Mayor of Milan GILDA BOJARDI Director of INTERNI FABRIZIO LONGO Brand Director Audi Italia MARIO CUCINELLA Architect MC A - Mario Cucinella Architects ALIDA FORTE CATELLA CEO of COIMA Image and Vice-president of the Riccardo Catella Foundation moderated by: GIANGIACOMO SCHIAVI journalist Thanks to Officine Tamborrino for the NO SMOKING chairs designed by Andrea Epifani
