Benefit corporation
Parts is a Società Benefit, an Italian benefit corporation: besides making a profit, our articles of association commit us to purposes of common benefit. Every year we report on what we did, the results and the goals we set for the year ahead.
Società Benefit are companies that, besides sharing profits, pursue one or more purposes of common benefit and operate responsibly, sustainably and transparently towards people, communities, territories and the environment, cultural and social assets and activities, organisations and other stakeholders. They are governed by Italian Law no. 208 of 28 December 2015 (opens in a new tab), paragraphs 376–384.
Our common benefit is written into our articles of association: a commitment, not a promise.
By law, a benefit corporation states its common benefit purposes in its articles of association, appoints the people responsible for pursuing them and reports on them every year, in a report attached to its financial statements and published on its website.
Our articles of association focus on promoting cultural accessibility, the inclusion of audiences and the responsible use of digital technologies to enhance cultural heritage. In practice, we commit to three areas.
We keep creating educational content on entrepreneurship and innovation, and we promote initiatives for the social, economic, cultural, tourist and environmental development of our area. Free of charge too, with particular attention to people facing economic or social hardship.
People who work with Parts can do most of their work from home and on flexible hours, to balance family and work better.
We reinvest at least 1% of our profits in training our employees and collaborators.
The full text is in the corporate purpose of our articles of association, filed with the Companies Register.
The report comes with each year’s financial statements and, as the law requires (paragraph 382), it has three parts:
The specific objectives, methods and actions through which we pursued our common benefit purposes, and any circumstances that prevented or slowed them down.
An assessment of the impact we generated, measured against an external, independent and credible assessment standard. It covers four areas: corporate governance, workers, other stakeholders and the environment.
The new objectives we set for the following financial year.
We publish each report here once the financial statements it is attached to have been approved. Our first financial year is 2026: the first report will come in 2027.
Financial year 2026 In preparation
We will publish it here by June 2027, once the financial statements have been approved.
