The INSEAD Fund - The power of collective giving

For the past 60 years, INSEAD has cultivated a culture of entrepreneurship, diversity, independence, rigour and relevance. It is now time to build on this legacy and strengthen our culture of giving.

Serving as the school’s annual fund, the INSEAD Fund uses the power of collective giving to support specific needs that advance our broader mission. It enables INSEAD to champion business as a force for good – today, tomorrow and into the future. 

Gifts to the INSEAD Fund have an immediate impact, providing the school with the financial flexibility to enhance how we equip responsible business leaders; address crucial needs that arise during the academic year; embark on new research; innovate our academic courses and campus facilities; and increase the value of your INSEAD education. 

How the fund works

All annual gifts – including Giving Day contributions and Reunion gifts – count towards the INSEAD Fund. Gifts to the INSEAD Fund also count towards The Campaign for INSEAD: A Force for Good.

Donations can be made to any, or all, of the following designated areas under the INSEAD Fund:

Dean’s Fund/Greatest Impact

The Dean’s Fund/Greatest Impact sustains vital programmes such as scholarships and research, and supports emerging opportunities, including innovative projects that may arise. Because gifts to the Dean’s Fund/Greatest Impact are unrestricted, they give INSEAD the flexibility to invest in areas that demonstrate the greatest potential for advancing business as a force for good. Resources are used under the direction and at the discretion of the Dean.

Scholarships

Scholarships keep our school competitive, advance our mission and expand our diversity. They enable the world’s most talented students to choose INSEAD and enhance the school’s dynamic learning environment. Gifts to Scholarships support both current funds (a source of immediate revenue) and endowed funds (invested in perpetuity) for new and existing scholarships.

For young alumni – those who graduated from INSEAD in the past 15 years – INSEAD also offers the Tomorrow’s Leaders Programme (TLP). Through TLP, donors can create named scholarships that support the next generation of INSEAD students.

Hoffmann Global Institute for Business and Society

The Hoffmann Global Institute for Business and Society (HGIBS) is dedicated to shaping discussions and promoting action that drives progress toward the UN Sustainable Development Goals. 

Through research, teaching, engagement and outreach, HGIBS strives to lead the way in transforming business education and mobilising stakeholders for impact. Gifts to HGIBS support four areas: the research of sustainable models, inclusion and wellbeing; the development of transformational learning experiences that open minds and inspire solutions; the engagement of the INSEAD community and corporate partners as agents of change; and the integration of INSEAD’s efforts to champion business as a force for good.

Campus Renewal

Reimagining INSEAD’s campuses is integral to the school’s next chapter. Gifts to Campus Renewal support our aim to better accommodate INSEAD’s growing community, enhance the campus experience, incorporate state-of-the-art educational methods and create new spaces for learning and engagement. 

Faculty & Research

Widely recognised as international experts in their fields, INSEAD faculty shape the school’s intellectual environment and push the boundaries of management research. To sustain this level of excellence, INSEAD must continue to invest in attracting and retaining world-class talent while also providing faculty with the resources they need to pursue pioneering research. Gifts to Faculty & Research support both of these critical areas.

Digital@INSEAD 

Digital@INSEAD focuses on harnessing digital technology to accelerate global prosperity and address urgent challenges in business and society. Through research, education and outreach, the initiative aims to generate new insights and frameworks for today’s business leaders and nurture a global community of scholars and practitioners. Gifts to Digital@INSEAD support these efforts to promote technology as a force for good.

We invite you to be a part of the INSEAD mission to transform our future by championing business as a force for good. We sincerely hope that you will consider making an INSEAD Fund gift this year. 

Change starts here.
