COSIMO is a specialty publisher for
independent authors, not-for-profit
organizations and innovative businesses,
dedicated to publishing books and
publications that inspire, inform, and
engage readers around the world. Cosimo was
inspired by Cosimo de Medici, the first of
the de Medici dynasty, who ignited the most
important cultural and artistic revolution
in Western history-the Renaissance. This
quest for enrichment is the foundation for
the work that we do.
