Prometeo is a new cultural content production platform for public engagement at the Politecnico di Torino that focuses on analyzing the complex relationship between technology and society.
Nowadays, technology plays an increasingly decisive role in all areas of human and social life: from education to work, from environment to health. For this reason, the Politecnico di Torino intends to intensify its knowledge-sharing initiatives with citizenship, reinforcing with Prometeo the activities of Biennale Tecnologia, the major biennial event that Politecnico has been successfully producing and promoting since 2019.
Prometeo designes and produces different cultural contents: theatrical performances, short films, non-fiction books, educational publications, podcasts, videos, lectures for school and university students, entertainment events, expert dialogues, exhibitions, and social media content, among other things.
Prometeo jointly pursues quality and impact, thanks to the ideas, skills and creativity of a dedicated staff - and of those who work at Politecnico on a daily basis - and the promotion of many collaboration with local, national and international cultural institutions.
Cycle of musical performances linked to technology to explore the scientific dimensions of creativity.
