Through Forever Forward, we’re growing our endowment to ensure long-term stability, independence and strength. A stronger endowment empowers the School to act decisively, invest boldly and continue leading the way in shaping business and the world.
Many of our competitors benefit from centuries-old endowment funds, worth, in some cases, 50 times more than ours. Yet the strength of our community has helped us become one of the world’s best business schools. Imagine the impact you can make by enabling a more robust endowment – strengthening our financial foundations, enhancing our reputation and prestige, and improving our ability to compete for the very best talent in both faculty and students.
"An endowment provides lasting support, ensuring London Business School can continue to lead, innovate and inspire excellence for generations to come."
Emily A. Robin, Associate Dean, Advancement
Naming a chair, scholarship, fellowship, research institute or fund in perpetuity is a powerful statement of your values and vision for the future. You will forever be linked to the groundbreaking achievements your gift will make possible. Your generosity shapes lives and inspires progress for decades to come.
When making an endowed gift, you have a double impact, ensuring that the School meets your philanthropic priorities while at the same time building LBS’s assets for wider benefit. Meticulously managed to provide a consistent and reliable source of funding for the designated area of support; the endowment invests the principal amount received and spends a small portion of the return each year. The rest is reinvested, providing support for LBS’s initiatives and enhancing the fund’s sustainability, accelerating growth and compounding future value.
