Biography

Graduated in Philosophy and Literature with a mayor in Social Communication, she pursued a three-year postgraduate specialization in Marketing and Corporate Communication. Since the mid-1990s, she has held the position of Adjunct Professor in brand communication at the Catholic University of Milan. From 1998 to 2004, she worked as a desk researcher and senior trainer for the international company Arkema, based in Paris and owned by Andrea Semprini, an Italian scholar specialized in branding. During her tenure at Arkema, she focused on strategic training and semiotic research applied to brands for significant clients, mostly in the Advertising, Food, and Fashion sectors.

In addition to her desk research activity, she is also a university professor and collaborated with various universities and training institutions on branding topics, covering both traditional and new media. She taught courses on "Brand Promotion" at IULM University of Milan, "Brand Communication" at the IED (European Design Institute) in Milan and in Turin, in the area of Communication, Marketing & Advertising. At the Catholic University of Milan, she has been teaching "History and Languages of Advertising" and "Corporate Marketing and Internal Branding," highlighting the interconnections between External and Internal Branding.

Since 2014, she has been the Educational Director of the Master in "Account & Sales Management" at ALMED, Catholic University of Milan. From the same year until 2021, she served as the Scientific Director of the Branded Entertainment Observatory (in Italia, Osservatorio Branded Entertainment)[3]. Thanks to her extensive expertise on the subject, she curated the Branded Entertainment column for the NC-Nuova Comunicazione magazine.

Patrizia Musso is also a prolific author since 2005, with numerous books and essays dedicated to corporate communication and brand communication. Among her most significant contributions are well-known neologisms such as advertainment and advertainer (the brand spokesperson in advertainment contents), glass testimonial (a common person, presenting themselves as product-user in a way as transparent as glass), testimonial 3.0 (most commonly sportspeople who promote not only products, but also positive values), slow brand [4][5], and slow boss [6]. She also founded the first cultural observatory on branding, brandforum.it[7], in June 2001, and has been its director ever since.

In June 2015, she also conceived and launched the annual event "Slow Brand Festival" [8][9] in collaboration with brandforum.it, the Italian "Vivere con Lentezza" (Slow Living) Association, and the Giangiacomo Feltrinelli Foundation. Starting from 2018, the event has been enriched by the participation of ALMED - Alta Scuola in Media, Comunicazione e Spettacolo - Catholic University of Milan.
