Overview
Fondazione Germozzi — formally the Fondazione 'Manlio e Maria Letizia Germozzi onlus' — is an Italian non-profit foundation created by Confartigianato Imprese, the Italian confederation of craft enterprises and small businesses. It is named in memory of Manlio Germozzi, the founder of Confartigianato, and his daughter Maria Letizia Germozzi. The foundation's principal purpose is to promote the culture and activities of the artisan sector among young people, through education and vocational training initiatives financed by scholarships and fundraising. It also supports research, experimentation, conferences, and relations with representatives of institutions, politics, the productive world, and labour. The foundation is chaired by Professor Giulio Sapelli. Among its notable projects is the web information platform Spirito Artigiano, a digital magazine and contemporary agora for reflection, sharing, and debate on the culture of craftsmanship — its complexity, beauty, and values beyond purely economic meaning. The foundation operates within the orbit of Confartigianato Imprese, which is the data controller for its website and which established the foundation to honour the memory of the great artisan trade unionist. The foundation's activities are primarily Italian, focused on youth, training, and the cultural promotion of artisan work.
