KICK-OFF MEETING

On Wednesday 8 and Thursday 9 October 2025, Le Dimore del Quartetto will host at its Milan headquarters the kick-off meeting of MERITAcubed, the second edition of the European platform MERITA, once again selected among the winners of the Creative Europe European Call 2024.

The meeting will mark the official start of the project: two working days in which partners will be involved in a detailed presentation of the platform, from the activity plan to the timeline, from financial and administrative regulations to communication guidelines.
