Italy, in search of the future

For its 50th Anniversary, our Foundation has ideated and produced “L’Italia che ricerca il futuro – 50 anni di Fondazione Agnelli” (Italy, in search of the future – 50 years of Fondazione Agnelli): a series of five videos dedicated to five decades of activity, tied in with Italy’s social and cultural evolution over the same period. The project is meant to present – celebrating, while maintaining a critical and self-aware point of view – the ways in which the Foundation has strived, over time, to interpret the mission its 1966 charter defined: “to research in depth and spread knowledge about the conditions on which Italy’s economic, scientific, social and cultural progress depends”.

The videos’ production was entrusted to Francesco Antonioli, journalist at Il Sole 24 Ore, and video makers Sante Altizio and Fabio Gianotti (Kosmoki).
