Confindustria Emilia-Romagna
We are the main organisation representing the business community of Emilia-Romagna, founded in 1972. Our members consist of the six Industrial Associations of Emilia-Romagna. Two professional associations also belong to our regional organisation: Confindustria Ceramica - the national association of the ceramics industry, based in Sassuolo (Modena) - and Ance Emilia-Romagna - the regional association of the construction industry. Through these associations we represent around 6.500 companies, who take out voluntary membership, making a total of approximately 350,000 individuals. In fact, 95% of our associated companies have less than 50 employees. Confindustria Emilia-Romagna and the associations belong to Confindustria and, thanks to the Confindustria network, they are also linked operatively to all the national sector and professional organizations. Additionally, we have an organisational and functional connection with AIOP- the Private Hospitality Association of Emilia Romagna (Associazione Ospedalità Privata dell'Emilia-Romagna).
