Abstract
The concept of “Legacy” might have many interpretations, going from tangible to intangible, and accordingly, it can include a series of items that can be bequeathed to different kind of “heirs.” Either the giver or the community as main role players involved, the legacy is a bond for public administrations and destination managers. Legacy economics will be here connected to the innovative management of cultural destinations, where several and multi-goals-holders connect in order to provide resilience of villas, museums, and cultural assets together with increasing audiences and tourists. The collection of data about resilient creativity in Como (in the North of Italy) will show connections between legacy and management of public-private organizations for the last decade. A versatile and wide range of public and private interests together with national and international relevance will emerge. Community-type destinations will result as an original and innovative governance for resilience of culture and creativity connected with legacies and meta-management.
