Sinds 2015 hebben we samengewerkt met meer dan 30 toonaangevende internationale designscholen. We zijn trots op deze samenwerkingsverbanden, ze stellen ons in staat om nauw samen te werken met opkomende ontwerpers, en om de volgende generatie te inspireren en uit te rusten om op meer circulaire en bewuste manieren dingen te creëren. Door ongebruikte en onverkochte kristallen in deze programma's te integreren, geven we ook nieuw leven aan materialen die anders misschien zouden worden verspild. Innovatief denken inspireren: deze samenwerkingen herdefiniëren hoe we verantwoordelijk creëren, hergebruiken en ontwerpen. In 2025 lanceerden we de Swarovski Academic Partnership-wedstrijd, waarbij studenten van toonaangevende designscholen wereldwijd werden uitgenodigd om onze kristallen nieuw leven in te blazen en concepten te verzinnen voor ontwerpen die zijn geworteld in duurzaamheid. Tot nu toe hebben we samengewerkt met internationale scholen zoals Parsons en FIT colleges in New York, Donghua University en het Beijing Institute for Fashion Technology in China, Istituto Marangoni in Milaan, Dubai en Miami, evenals het London College of Fashion en Central St Martins in het Verenigd Koninkrijk.
