AXA

The relationship between AXA Italia and Bocconi began in 2011 with the establishment of the AXA-Bocconi Chair in Risk, which the AXA Research Fund assigned to Professor Massimo Marinacci. A number of other projects have followed: the allocation of a post-doctoral research fellowship to Nicoletta Balbo, researcher at the DONDENA Research Center; two editions of the FuturAXA graduate program, reserved for postgraduates; the annual AXA-Bocconi Talks/Seminars on major emerging risks, an eBook on Professor Marinacci’s research topics, and the AXA Challenge. This collaboration highlights the common denominator of AXA initiatives at Bocconi: supporting talent, innovation, and optimal research to reinvent insurance. Lastly, the AXA Research Lab on Gender Equality was established in 2020 through Bocconi and AXA’s collaboration, along with the AXA Research Fund. Led by Paola Profeta, it aims to promote studies capable of affecting the policies essential for eliminating the gender gap and thus achieving the goal set in the United Nations Sustainable Development Agenda.
