We’re proud to announce that HOROPEDIA FOUNDATION is finally here.

The Foundation is non-profit and independent. It will support the steady and uninterrupted work of the HOROPEDIA website, and help spread the knowledge and highlight the know-how of the [HASH]watchmaking crafts including technical and artistic skills accumulated over the years. It is committed to the long-term success and visibility of watchmaking art.
The Executive Board is composed of Philippe Dufour (President), Dr Helmut Crott., André Colard, and Marc Andre Deschoux as Executive Director. The Board will oversee all the decisions to achieve the aims of the Foundation and will have general responsibility for the affairs of the Foundation.
With the growth of the community and visual content on the HOROPEDIA website, the future engagement of the Foundation will also include awarding scholarships to give young students and/or individuals pursuing continuing education the opportunity to study or continue their studies at specialized watchmaking schools.
