Learning objectives
<p>The demand for artistic and cultural products is expanding, touching wider and wider segments of the population. The economic implications of artistic activities are therefore also increasing in importance: They can condition tourism, revitalise urban areas and create new job opportunities. The new technologies are also investing in this sector, revolutionising more traditional production, distribution and communication methods. <br />
The aim of the course is to describe how Italian cultural organisations can respond to the new international competitive pressure and use marketing variables to catch the attention of the consumer and attract resources. <br />
