Rome Art Week is also sponsored by the CIU (Italian Confederation of Intellectual Professions Union).

For nearly four decades, CIU has been pursuing the goal of spreading the culture of “professional synergies,” the combined action of different professional skills, enhancing collective over individual achievement and seeking synergy between the public and private sectors.

The socio-political heir of Unionquadri, CIU represents the interests of executives, managers, professionals, researchers, consultants, middle management and high professionals, carried out either in subordinate or self-employed form of microenterprise or in corporate form with “Knowledge Cooperatives.”

It is a member of the National Economic and Labor Council (CNEL) and the European Economic and Social Committee (EESC) in Brussels.
