Alumni fund

INSEAD is committed to developing the next generation of global leaders who will change the world. Grounded in our distinct values, vision and ventures, this €250 million fundraising Campaign strives to fortify our academic excellence, drive breakthrough innovation and transform society on a global scale. With more than 57,000 INSEAD alumni in 175 countries around the globe, ours is a network like no other. Together, let’s transform the world.

In Belgium as well, it is encouraging to see that a significant part of our INSEAD alumni has been a loyal base of donors for many years. In its fundraising activity, IAF in Belgium is constantly raising awareness for all the key INSEAD development projects that will ensure our top notch positioning in the future while keeping an eye on more concrete donation projects such as social scholarships.

We are extremely grateful that our Belgian donors are so loyal and generous over the years and we are convinced  that the steady increase of the donation amounts over the years has helped the development of INSEAD to become and stay a top level business school for the world. It should all make us proud and we are hoping that it will encourage all alumni to donate more in the future. And as the raised donations are clearly put to good use, we can only applaud the emergence of larger donors. Let’s all hope there are more to come!

Corporate and Foundations:

INSEAD’s close connections with the business world go back to 1958 to the school’s early mission statement “INSEAD is a partner of business. A close liaison with companies will be developed so that what is taught corresponds exactly to their needs.” Since then, we have built strong links with the international business community. The content of our degree and executive programmes as well as our research agenda is drawn directly from corporate challenges.

INSEAD also has a long and close history of working and partnering with foundations, and these organizations have played a significant role in our development since the early years. The ongoing support of foundations is critical to INSEAD’s mission, and we feel privileged that such organizations see our school as a worthy partner.

Our Corporate Relations team is ready to work with you to identify projects where your company or foundation’s engagement will be the most meaningful for your mission and values. Please do not hesitate to contact us. For Belgium: https://forceforgood.insead.edu/give

Help outstanding students finance their MBA.

Some years ago, the Alumni Association of Belgium had set itself the goal to create an INSEAD Scholarship to help outstanding candidates from Belgium finance their MBA Programmes at INSEAD. Through this scholarship, we hope to further enhance the Belgian presence in INSEAD’s MBA Programme and to contribute to the development of the managerial and entrepreneurial capabilities of future Belgian business men and women.

Thanks to the continued success of the INSEAD Innovator Prize gala dinners over the past several years, to the generosity of INSEAD Belgian Alumni and to the moral and financial support of the Chairman and members of the INSEAD Belgian Council, as well as the support of INSEAD itself, we are glad to have set up the INSEAD Alumni and Council Scholarship.

Granting based on essay competition.

Two scholarships are awarded each year (one of each promotion) on the basis of merit to candidates who have been residents of Belgium for at least five years and who have already been admitted to the INSEAD MBA Programme. The award is based on an essay competition judged by a panel consisting of INSEAD Alumni and Donor representatives. The INSEAD Alumni Association of Belgium, the INSEAD Belgium Council and other donors have endowed a fund, administered by INSEAD in the frame of its Development Campaign and supervised by the INSEAD Finance Committee, to grand scholarships for MBA participants from Belgium.
