The first Italian design map was created in 2016 by the Italian Chamber of Commerce in Canada-West, in collaboration with the Consulate General of Italy in Vancouver and DreamyourMind SRL, to track the made in Italy presence in Greater Vancouver Area and to give greater visibility and recognition to those businesses operating in the metro Vancouver area which promote Italian design.

Today, the map has been completely renovated and it includes Italian and Canadian businesses that with passion and pride help promote the beauty and excellence of made in Italy design outside of Italy.

The map includes both brands that are already present in Canada, and companies that are not yet represented and are looking for representation.

The platform also aims at giving a voice to all the stories of the Italian men and women that with their hands bring beauty to life every day, and to all the centennial craftsmanship traditions that represent heart and mind, past and future of the amazing country that is Italy.
