Wired Italia was born in early 2009 as the first non-English-language edition of the brand founded in 1993 in dot-com-fever San Francisco. It has also been the first Condé Nast brand worldwide to drastically rethink its formula. Wired Italia solidly sits on three equally important pillars. An innovation-themed digital and social platform, including the Italian company’s largest website and a fan base which is constantly growing thanks to its original tone of voice and its beyond-the-breaking-news-headlines approach. A very high-quality quarterly bookazine which won the SPD Magazine of the Year award. And a series of live events, most famously the WiredNextFest, are highlights of the global events calendar.

Founded in 1986, MicroMega is a bimonthly journal that publishes articles on politics and society, fiction and satire, and reports and inquires from Italy and abroad.One issue a year is dedicated to philosophy and one to science. Editorially, MicroMega speaks out against the degeneration of Western democracies, focusing on issues such as social and juridical injustice in Italy and abroad, (illegal) wars, mafia, ecological crimes, censorship, political corruption and secularism. Although this stance has made MicroMega an important forum for the views of the Italian Left, the journal is absolutely independent and has no link whatsoever to any political party.
