The AIVANCITY Endowment Fund : Contributing to the development of diversity and social inclusion

The objective of the AIVANCITY Endowment Fund is to contribute to diversity and social inclusion by financing scholarships for students based on social criteria and academic excellence. It also aims to develop scientific research activities that contribute to the evolution of Artificial Intelligence and Data science knowledge and practices, while integrating trust and ethics principles.

The fund also aims to promote and develop excellence-based education within its regional and professional environment and guarantee equal access to it.

The principle of constitutional value of equal access to education for citizens and the undeniable affirmation of the role of training as an asset for social mobility to reduce social and economic inequalities are behind the creation of this endowment fund.

Beyond its technical challenges, AI today raises many questions about its implications on business and management, but also on tomorrow's Man and Society. The AIVANCITY Endowment Fund also intends, by financing R&D, to advance AI's applications and address changes in business practices and society's expectations.
