This small exhibition in Trivero focuses on the experience of a young entrepreneur, Ermenegildo Zegna, as documented by a wealth of material from the Casa Zegna historical archives. Innovation, obduracy and farsightedness were clearly the main ingredients in his industrial adventure. The exhibits include a description of the “old” wool mill by Ermenegildo Zegna in a short film made by Istituto LUCE. Casa Zegna is invaluable not only in terms of textiles but also business history and environmental and social activism. The center always has “work in progress”, it’s a source of continual growth, a crucible of new ideas in which tradition merges with transformation.
