For its annual Most Innovative Companies issue, Fast Company caught up with Moleskine CEO Arrigo Berni to discuss the company’s recent expansions, including the launch of the first Moleskine Cafe and its hugely successful Smart Writing Set.
The Moleskine notebook is the heir and successor to the legendary notebook used by artists and thinkers over the past two centuries. In 1997, a small Milanese publisher brought the legendary notebook back to life, choosing this literary name to revive an extraordinary tradition and accompany the creative professions of our time.
Today Moleskine is a brand that encompasses a family of nomadic objects dedicated to our mobile identity, synonym for creativity and an inspiration for ideas, projects and spontaneous collaborations. Moleskine is now also a series of collections that go beyond paper: bags, writing instruments and reading accessories.
