The Global Alumni Scholarship Fund

Last year in London, the University established the Global Alumni Scholarship Fund as part of the first fundraising Campaign in Italy by a higher education institution: Within our Reach – together for a new vision of the future.

Again this year, in conjunction with the Global Conference in Shanghai, Alumni and participants will have the opportunity to make a gift, honoring not only their Bocconi degree and investing in future generations, but also their commitment to the value of international experience.
