The origins of the Bracco Foundation lie in the heritage of values passed down for nearly a century from the Bracco family and the Bracco Group, fostering a sense of Corporate Social Responsibility.
The Foundation aims to create and spread expressions of culture, art, and science as means for improving our quality of life. It pays specific attention to women and younger generations, encouraging social cohesion.
As part of its mission, Bracco Foundation:
Multidisciplinary environments and integration between different fields of knowledge are important qualitative criteria both in the planning and selection of activities. The Foundation strives for an innovative approach and measures the results and impact of its interventions.
Bracco Foundation is led by the President, Diana Bracco, flanked by a steering committee, a management committee and a college of auditors. The Foundation is based in Milan, in the historic Palazzo Visconti. This Palazzo also houses the Teatrino, the foundation’s laboratory of scientific and cultural ideas, and here the “Bracco Foundation meets” events, open to the City, are organised.
The main threads developed in the field of the arts and culture are chosen with specific scientific/technological and training content: for example, in the figurative arts diagnostics applied to the study and recover of works, the relationships between culture and well-being, the bringing together of art and science. Particular attention is paid to musical culture through the support of leading musical institutions in Italy and abroad.
In the area of science and society the Foundation develops initiatives as a contribution to collective well-being, in which the culture of prevention is a priority topic of intervention. Through operational projects, the aim is to bring added value to the community in terms of know-how and scientific contribution, in addition to the philanthropic benefit.
progettoDiventerò is the multi-year initiative of Bracco Foundation that accompanies deserving young people in their training and
professional career in various disciplines.
Participation in associations of business foundations and sector roundtables promotes
business culture.
