A Global Network That Makes a Difference
Alumnus & Donor
IThe financial aid program the University offers to students was further strengthened in 2025 thanks to contributions from numerous Donors, especially in the Alumni community. This has led to new initiatives aimed at expanding the impact of the Bocconi community internationally.
In the United Kingdom, this commitment has been recognized through the UK Fund, which was launched at the first Bocconi London Benefit Gala in November 2025. The event was made possible thanks to the generous contribution of Davide Serra, CEO and Founder of Algebris Investments, Donor and Alumnus of the Year and guest of honor for the evening. The fund aims to raise €1.5 million over three years to support tuition waivers and scholarships and has already benefited from the donations collected during the event.
Thanks to these resources, the first tuition waivers will be awarded from the 2026–2027 academic year onward, demonstrating the tangible impact that the global Alumni community continues to have on the University. We would like to express our heartfelt thanks to all our Donors — individuals and companies in the UK — who through their generosity and vision continue to support Bocconi’s mission and the future of our students.
