No, I don't believe it is. I think it's part of the WikiMedia foundation, which itself is a non-profit. Could be wrong on that.
I interpreted the word "institutions" pretty broadly here though, since the original comment was talking about a whole "era". Not trying to disagree with the gist of the original comment, just making discussion about an edge case I thought of.
