How universities in Europe and in the world are structured in relation to funding
How universities in Europe and in the world are structured in relation to funding
In the international arena many universities can count on Endowment Funds to ensure their development over time.
These resources are invested in a long-term perspective, generating a return each year for universities and their purposes.
The Biomedical University Foundation, inspired by the best universities in the world, has also chosen to take the same path; the funds received are collected in assets that are invested and the financial return is utilized to support high social impact projects.
TESTIMONIALS
"Science and medicine know how to give us - every day - new horizons of hope, but they become powerful tools of conquest when they are complemented by a culture of values marked by a vision close to people's instances and their essential needs. This is why I recognize myself in the mission and purposes pursued by the Biomedical University Foundation, happy to be part of the Advisory Board and aware that teaming up with dedication and a spirit of solidarity - in the vein of what my world, that of sports, teaches - contributes to increasing the potential to benefit an ever wider community and in an ever more effective way."
Giovanni Malagò President CONI and Milan Cortina 2026 Foundation, IOC member"Campus Bio-Medico University of Rome is truly extraordinary for its ultra-modern and technologically advanced equipment, but it is its ethos that makes it a University, reflected in the way of teaching, studying, and training doctors to assist patients. Technology today may seem to ensure endless progress, but without values it remains incomplete."
Gianni Letta POLITICIAN AND JOURNALIST"In my life I have always tried to move along a double track, both by pursuing business enterprises and by cultivating an interest in non-profit endeavors. Hence my involvement in various institutions, such as LUISS for Education, the Santa Cecilia Academy for culture and music and the Biomedical University Foundation for its person-centric healthcare. Of course, ideas and projects are often linked to interpersonal relationships and the strong friendship with the Campus Bio-Medico University of Rome resulted from the even stronger friendship with the late Navarro-Valls and with the dearest Paolo Arullani."
Giuseppe Cornetto Bourlot VICE PRESIDENT ADVISORY BOARD BIOMEDICAL UNIVERSITY FOUNDATION“I remember perfectly well when, in the initial phase of the Campus Bio-Medico University, Geri Crocchiolo showed me the business plan that at first glance seemed to be such a far-fetched idea ... In my office in Rome I still have the safety helmet I used when with Pippo Corigliano and I went to see the first building foundations. Today it is a dream come true, a well-established center of excellence with humans at its core and science at the service of mankind. All of this it is possible thanks to the contribution of a group of "benevolent" individuals and institutions and the fundamental contribution of Joaquín Navarro-Valls, who was its soul and testimonial, impetous and concrete executor, first with "benevolence" and then with the endowment fund that allows you to exercise philanthropy over time thanks to investments and return on capital.”
Stefano Lucchini CHIEF INSTITUTIONAL AFFAIRS AND EXTERNAL COMMUNICATION OFFICER, INTESA SANPAOLO S.P.A."The advances in the medicine field, if we look back even a few years, are truly significant, thanks to the investments in research and the contribution of institutions such as Campus Bio-Medico University of Rome, an institution to which I have been close since its inception, thanks to a truly extraordinary person, Paolo Arullani. I therefore enthusiastically accepted to be part of the Advisory Board of the Biomedical University Foundation to promote scientific research and support the Campus Bio-Medico University of Rome. It is an opportunity to work with special people on issues and programs that are important for all of us and for generations to come. "
Agostino Re Rebaudengo PRESIDENT OF ASJA AND FUTURE ELECTRICITY“Benevolence, the guiding principle of the Biomedical University Foundation, is a life reference for me. And, for this reason, being able to support the training, research and healthcare activities of Campus Bio-Medico University - as a member of the Advisory Board of its Foundation - represents my small contribution to improve the health and well-being of as many people as possible. "
Maria Bianca Farina PRESIDENT OF POSTE ITALIANE AND ANIA"Since the first brick was laid I have always felt part of Campus Bio-Medico which, through the Biomedical University Foundation, is able to successfully turn into reality the shared belief in attention and care for others’ wellbeing."
Luisa Todini ENTREPRENEUR"Una perfetta strategia non è l’unico “segreto” dietro alla vittoria in una regata. C’è principalmente un equipaggio eccezionale e fortemente motivato. Oltre alla nuova sfida professionale alla guida di SLAM, ho così deciso di navigare in un mare nuovo, quello della formazione, dell’assistenza e della ricerca ed ho scelto di diventare un membro dell'equipaggio del Campus Bio-Medico” entrando a far parte del Consiglio di Amministrazione della Biomedical University Foundation con la quale condivido profondamente i principi ispiratori. Questo incarico rappresenta per me un’opportunità di contribuire a un contesto diverso, ricco di valori e di ideali, per offrire ai nostri figli una formazione umana e professionale che possieda qualcosa in più, che abbia a cuore il bene della persona e che metta la scienza e le tecnologie a servizio dell’uomo e dell’ambiente!"
