Brands, organizations and institutions sharing our values

Forming a partnership with Polimoda means creating an agreement based on values, intentions and long-term goals that a company, organization or cultural body aims to pursue together with the school as part of a top-quality training program.

There are two possible forms of collaboration: Academic Partnership and Institutional Partnership.

Academic Partnerships

With its students from all over the world, Polimoda has developed into an exceptional melting pot of cultures, expertise, traditions, languages and styles that promotes personal growth through the sharing of ideas.

Polimoda’s Academic Partners are companies or institutions and organizations that decide to play an active role in the training courses of students, partners that literally take to the pulpit – in collaboration with the school, they develop educational programs, hold classroom lessons and organize workshops, visits and projects.
