Confindustria Genova

About Confindustria Genova

Confindustria was founded as Consorzio Industriale Ligure in 1901 and joined the Italian Confederation of Industry in 1910. It was re-established as the Association of Industrialists of the Province of Genoa in 1945. The core value that inspires the action of the entrepreneurs' organization is the conviction that free enterprise and the free exercise of economic activity, within a market economy context, are factors for the development and progress of society as a whole. Confindustria, based on its Statute, aims to contribute, together with political institutions and national and international economic, social, and cultural organizations, to the economic growth and social progress of the country. Joining the Confindustria system allows associated companies to benefit from the representation of entrepreneurial interests throughout the national territory, in dealings with the main political and administrative institutions, including Parliament, the Government, trade union organizations, and other social forces, as well as to access specialized services to support business activities.
