HOROPEDIA has become a public interest foundation

The new status will take effect on March 21, 2023.

This important milestone in the history of the Horopedia Foundation highlights the importance of its efforts in the preservation and transmission of know-how and horological culture. It emphasizes the independent and non-profit nature of its main project, dedicated to cultural and educational causes.

This is a highly valued recognition of our ongoing efforts to serve the entire Horologist (watchmaker) ecosystem. This project was created for educational, inclusive, and independent purposes, useful to anyone interested in watchmaking. Horopedia’s philosophy is to cover all subjects with integrity and neutrality, as a legacy and a transmission of all knowledge. This was the initial motivation of the founders of the Foundation“, says Marc André Deschoux, founder of the Horopedia Foundation.

The Horopedia Foundation aims to pursue objectives of public interest, in Switzerland and abroad, by gathering extensive knowledge about the art and culture of watchmaking and sharing it on its multilingual website in order to contribute to the long-term success and visibility of the watchmaking industry.
