Benefit Corporation

Value beyond financial return

ALKEMIQ integrates public-benefit objectives linked to culture, creativity and the enhancement of artistic and intellectual heritage into its business model, pursuing economic value creation alongside a positive impact on the ecosystems in which it operates.

Benefit Corporation

Business, culture and responsibility

ALKEMIQ's status as an Italian Benefit Corporation reflects its commitment to pursue public-benefit objectives alongside economic goals and to operate responsibly, sustainably and transparently towards its stakeholders.

This commitment is embedded in corporate governance: management is directed towards balancing shareholders' interests, public-benefit objectives and the interests of those who may be affected by ALKEMIQ's activities.

Public-benefit objectives

Three areas of commitment

The Articles of Association identify public-benefit objectives addressing cultural and creative operators, citizens and communities, as well as public bodies and Third Sector organisations.

Creative ecosystem

Support cultural businesses and operators

Promote access to economic, technological and management tools for artists, creatives, businesses and cultural operators, supporting the development and dissemination of their activities.

Culture and heritage

Broaden access to culture

Promote access to artistic and audiovisual culture through innovative tools, applications and models capable of enhancing Italian and international cultural, creative and artistic heritage.

Territories and communities

Build shared initiatives

Collaborate with public bodies, Third Sector organisations, foundations, associations and non-profit organisations to develop cultural, artistic and social initiatives that are sustainable over time.

Integrated impact

Public benefit is embedded in the industrial model

For ALKEMIQ, the Benefit dimension is not separate from the business. It is a principle embedded in how the Group selects, develops and enhances its projects.

The management of artists and cultural heritage, development of film and audiovisual works, enhancement of intellectual property and use of technology in creative industries can contribute simultaneously to economic value creation and to the dissemination, preservation and accessibility of culture.
