Initiatives
Our core giving projects aim to improve lives; improving conditions now and for the future. We know that talent is distributed equitably, but opportunities are not. That's why we bring opportunities to the best talent, no matter where it comes from, or who it belongs to.
We promote research, innovation, and entrepreneurship through our high-impact research centers, to make a difference in Mexico and the world. We also have centers that focus on addressing challenges that as a society we have a responsibility to solve.
Finally, we strengthen student education and the learning experience by creating environments on our campuses and surrounding areas that enrich collaboration and encourage thought.
