The beauty of the Tyrrhenian sea, clean air, mild weather, and a vibrant food culture are all things that make Italy a dream destination for tourists worldwide. But thanks to its rich territory and millennia-old traditions, the Italian boot is a land of opportunities far beyond tourism.

Most of the Italian territory is home to thousands of small villages (places with no more than 5000 inhabitants) harboring thousands of years of cultural heritage and charm. These places are at the heart of Italy's cultural portfolio thanks to their resilient communities that even despite depopulation, remain driven to preserve their history and authenticity.
