Another sensational rift takes place in Confindustria. As Sergio Marchionne's FCA had done in the past, Leonardo Del Vecchio's Luxottica has also left Confindustria, the organization of private industrialists that appears increasingly in decline, unable as it is to affect the country's major economic and industrial choices .
Del Vecchio, who hasn't hidden his skepticism about Confindustria for some time, has decided that his company, which has become a global eyewear giant thanks to its marriage to the French company Essilor, will no longer renew its membership in Confindustria's local organizations. Luxottica will therefore remain affiliated only to the trade federation of industrialists.
Unlike Marchionne, Del Vecchio leaves Confindustria without controversy but his farewell is also destined to leave its mark on the entrepreneurial organization. Especially since it takes place on the eve of the annual meeting of Confindustria, which collects a new setback, political and image even more than associative. But the problem has been on the table for years now: either Confindustria manages to completely change its skin and catch up with the excellence of Made in Italy, increasingly projected onto international markets and less and less interested in the political squabbles and bureaucratic logic of the tower block 'Eur, or its fate is sealed and the crisis runs the risk of being irreversible, condemning the entrepreneurs' organization to increasingly irrelevance in the economic and social life of the country.
