Exhibition & Communications

Exhibition

Team concepts, scale models, and digital renderings will be given a prominent platform during an exhibition hosted at the Lake Como Design Festival from 11 to 19 September 2027, ensuring broad exposure to industry leaders, media, and the general public.

All entries will benefit from visibility and exposure on the Volta27.org website. The festival will receive significant coverage in design magazines and from influencers, and the challenge will be heavily featured in these promotional campaigns. The Lake Como Design Festival welcomes approximately 10,000 visitors, and we expect a significant number of them to be interested in this unique initiative.

The challenge also aims to be included on the official agenda of the Volta Celebrations, benefiting from additional visibility due to the national importance of the 2027 event in Italy.

Students Communications & Outreach

Teams and academic institutions are strongly encouraged to document and share their design journey, innovation approaches, and work-in-progress on digital platforms. Whether posting behind-the-scenes prototyping snapshots on Instagram or TikTok, publishing research updates and concept breakdowns, or maintaining a dedicated project blog, participants can build visibility by tagging Volta27 and using the official challenge hashtags. This ongoing documentation helps showcase their creative process to the broader design community.

To support direct and more private communication between participants, an invitation-only WhatsApp group is managed by the Volta27 team. This community channel serves as a dynamic space for participants to exchange ideas, spark cross-team collaborations, ask questions, and receive timely updates and coordination support throughout the challenge.
