Your gift will go to the IMD Scholarship Foundation. The IMD Scholarship Foundation exists to support exceptional individuals who wish to reach their leadership potential and contribute to society. It does so by providing scholarships to talented individuals so that financial barriers don't hold them back from pursuing a life-changing, educational journey at IMD. It is presided by MBA Dean, Professor Omar Toulan and is registered in Canton Vaud, Switzerland. As an institution that pursues public interest goals, it is tax-exempt. Donations may therefore be tax deductible depending on the amount and method of donation and your tax residency.
