The Invernizzi Foundation and Bocconi University’s relationship has deep and solid roots. Established thirty years ago and based on common values and objectives, this connection has grown and strengthened over time, becoming a real Partnership in support of scientific research, knowledge and progress. The Romeo and Enrica Invernizzi Foundation is Bocconi University’s most significant donor, a partner who has trained many researchers in the field of social sciences through important philanthropic donations, supporting Bocconi research and inspiring the growth of the University’s PhD School. After supporting Basic Research at Bocconi and the PhD School, in 2011 the Foundation chose to establish the Romeo and Enrica Invernizzi Foundation Chair in Development Economics, assigned to Prof. Eliana La Ferrara. 

During 2016-2020, they also named the Research Center ICRIOS - The Invernizzi Center for Research on Innovation, Organization, Strategy and Entrepreneurship and created LEAP - Laboratory for Effective Anti-Poverty Policies, in addition to confirming their significant annual support of research activities and the University’s PhD School. 

In 2018, the Foundation further confirmed their commitment by contributing to the establishment of SDA Bocconi School of Management’s AGRI Lab and supported an innovative project at the Research Center GREEN - Geography, Resources, Environment, Energy and Networks. 

Each initiative supported and each investment made by the Invernizzi Foundation has contributed to the progress and dissemination of knowledge and has generated an immense impact on the world in which we live.
