Since 2015, we have partnered with more than 30 leading international design schools. We are proud of these collaborations - they allow us to work closely with emerging designers, as well as inspiring and equipping the next generation to create in more circular and conscious ways. By integrating unused and unsold crystals into these programs, we also bring new life to materials that may otherwise go to waste. Inspiring innovative thinking - these partnerships help to redefine how we create, reuse, and design responsibly. In 2025, we launched the Swarovski Academic Partnership Competition, inviting students from leading design schools worldwide to reignite our crystals and conceptualize designs that are rooted in sustainability. To date we have worked with international schools including Parsons and FIT colleges in New York, Donghua University and the Beijing Institute for Fashion Technology in China, Istituto Marangoni in Milan, Dubai, and Miami, as well as the London College of Fashion and Central St Martins in the UK.
