The principal objectives of this paper are to present a research project to analyse the existing relations into the Italian museum sector and to define a function that aims to identify the existence and constitution conditions of a network. If the fundamentals of network theory are that relations influence behaviours (Bott, 1957) and are a resource to exploit in order to gain benefits (Burt, 1979), our purpose is to evidence how these features are present in a no profit sector -where the logics of the management are different from that of industrial market- and in a particular no profit sector (museums). We first describe the principal features of IMP model, that is our analysis grid in nr 2, we illustrate the principal aspects of Italian museum sector, in order: to delineate the differences between this area and that ones traditionally analysed in IMP model to theorize some eventual adjustments of IMP model in relation to these differences in nr 3 we highlight and describe these differences and adjustments these assumptions will be the hypothesis of our research in nr 4 we shortly describe, in very shortly terms, the objectives and the methodology of our research.
