ISAE-SUPAERO Foundation As a strategic partner of ISAE-SUPAERO, the Foundation participates in promoting the Institute internationally by accelerating innovative projects that contribute to a sustainable world through donations collected from corporate and individual patrons. Corporate sponsorship enables educational and/or research chairs to be created, along with excellence programmes. The generosity of individuals is mainly directed towards projects by students, PhD students, and professors working in these five areas: 2023 was a year of continued commitment from individual donors and sponsors who support ISAE-SUPAERO’s chairs and programmes.
