🌍 The Felice Veneziani Scholarship – Honoring a Legacy, Inspiring the Next Generation

The Felice Veneziani Scholarship is proudly sponsored by EazyCity, a global education and mobility company founded in Cork, Ireland, in 2004. Today, EazyCity supports thousands of students and young professionals from across Europe every year.

👤 Who Was Felice Veneziani?

Born in Ferrara in 1914, Felice Veneziani was the grandfather of EazyCity co-founder Enrico Zoppi. A man of strength and values, Felice had a profound impact on Enrico’s life. In his memory, this scholarship was created to give back by offering life-changing opportunities to deserving young people.

“As a company we feel very fortunate, and we would like to give something back by supporting students who truly deserve this opportunity — through their academic achievements and their commitment to extracurricular activities.” – Enrico Zoppi

🎓 What the Scholarship Offers

Each year, five outstanding students are selected for a study and work experience in Ireland during the summer. The program includes:

• ✈️ Round-trip flights to Ireland
• 🏡 One month of accommodation

It’s a unique opportunity to immerse in a new culture, gain valuable work experience, and build international confidence.

👤 Who is Enrico Zoppi, Director of the EazyCity Group

Born in 1980 in Turin, Enrico Zoppi is the co-founder and Director of the EazyCity Group.

“I’m extremely proud of what we’ve built over these 21 years of welcoming people from all over the world. Our organic growth has been the result not only of my role as a ‘director behind the scenes,’ but above all, the collaboration with my business partner Julia, the constant support of my wife Costanza, and the dedication of our entire team, who have always believed in the EazyCity vision.

Ireland is the country where I grew up as a person and where I was able to fulfil myself professionally. It has been — and still is — an exciting journey, full of meaningful encounters and defining moments.

I often think about the students who are just beginning their study and work experiences abroad. I vividly remember that feeling of freedom, lightness, and limitless possibility. Experiencing another culture up close can truly transform us — not just in terms of future professional opportunities, but more importantly in terms of personal and human growth. Taking part in a study-abroad experience is a gift you give yourself — for your life and for your career.”

EazyCity is happy to renew the Scholarship for 2026!
