OUR FUNDRAISING GALA DINNERS
Since 2018, the ESCP Foundation has organised international galas to bring its community together around its key priorities: supporting academic excellence, promoting equal opportunities, and empowering students.
These gatherings unite alumni, partners and friends of the School from across the world, strengthening connections between campuses and communities.
As powerful moments of collective engagement, they support tangible initiatives, including the funding of scholarships and the development of excellence-driven programmes.
Part of the #RisingTogether campaign, which aims to raise €100 million by 2030, and aligned with the Bold & United strategy, these galas reflect the strength of our network and our shared ability to drive impact.
