Intensive collaboration with foundations and the joint implementation of pioneering projects are also becoming increasingly important at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) from year to year. As a result, the need for communication, networking, information and exchange of experience is growing. On Wednesday, October 23, 2025, KIT will therefore welcome the science-promoting foundations for the third time at the Foundation Day in Karlsruhe. Foundation partners that already support KIT are cordially invited, as are interested foundations that would like to find out about possible collaborations.
 
Participation is only possible after registration. If you would like to receive a personal invitation to the Foundation Day, please send an e-mail to: fundraising@kit.edu..
