2026-2027 Academic Year Opening Ceremony

From the community to teaching, from relations with the world of work to financial aid for students: all the numbers that tell the story of the University

Construction for a new nursery and of the buildings at Via Bocconi 6–8 signal a new development phase for the campus. In the words of Taranto, “We are not just building spaces for the University, but places that must improve the quality of the city.”

With the A Place for the Future campaign, fundraising has now surpassed €110 million. The goal is to raise €200 million by 2030. Students, research and the University’s development are at the heart of support from Alumni, individuals, companies and foundations. Carù: “Philanthropy creates opportunities that last.”

The Bocconi Alumni Community honors three careers that have made an impact in international finance, social innovation and entrepreneurship. The awards will be presented on 23 October

At the Opening Ceremony of the 2026–2027 Academic Year, the University placed social mobility at the core of its strategy. More than €350 million will be allocated to student support over the 2026–2030 period, while more than 1,900 students study free of charge thanks to full tuition waivers. Billari: “Talent is everywhere, opportunities are not.”
