Barcelona GSE Research Endowment
In order to achieve its long-term goals and to secure strength, stability and sustainable independence, in 2007 the Barcelona GSE Board decided to create an endowment fund intended to be supported by individuals, corporations, foundations and public institutions. The endowment's revenues are dedicated exclusively to supporting the joint appointment of Barcelona GSE Research Professors with its four academic bodies.
