Federeventi-Confcommercio is launched, the new national federation of event businesses

Federeventi-Confcommercio, the new national federation for businesses in the sector, has been established. It represents companies, professionals and self-employed workers involved in the organisation of events of various kinds, from sport to entertainment, culture to trade fairs, meetings to workshops, as well as communication activities.

At the initiative of the president of Confcommercio, Carlo Sangalli, Mario Baldassari has gathered the demands of sector operators, creating a national representative body capable of responding to the growing needs of a rapidly expanding sector and protecting its economic and social interests. Among the new federation’s priorities is the representation of businesses in relations with national, European and international administrations, bodies and institutions, in coordination with the other levels of the confederate system.

The newly elected National Council brings together leading figures from the worlds of sport, entertainment and culture. Supporting president Mario Baldassari will be vice-presidents Francesco Chiappetti and Mattia Benzi, and councillors Stefano Bezzi, Massimiliano Passante, Moreno Conficconi, Domenico Rosa, Raffaello Bellavista and Fabio Gardella.

Numerous local Confcommercio organisations already active in the events sector also contributed to the establishment of the Federation, together with others interested in embarking on a shared path with Federeventi. The National Council also appointed lawyer Luca Stevanato as the Federation’s director general.

“Today we are giving a common home to a sector that creates economic activity, jobs and attractiveness for local areas,” declares president Mario Baldassari. “Trade fairs, congresses, shows, sport and culture are calling for authoritative and united representation. With Federeventi, and with the support of the Confcommercio system, we want to bring the needs of our businesses to the centre of discussions with institutions and offer operators practical services to grow and innovate.”
