Fondazione Invernizzi

The Founder was one of the most successful entrepreneur in the Italian Food Industry of the XX century. With his spouse he decided to dedicate nearly all their wealth to promote the development of Lombardy, ”giving back to their Country what they receive during their working life”. His main interests were agriculture, wellbeing and industrial organisation. For this reason the Foundation supports projects in the research areas of Agriculture, Health and Economics. Notable passion of the Founder was the care for Lombardy countryside landscape.
