What We Do.
The Fondazione Olmar is taking on the planet’s biggest, most important challenges by focusing on priorities that science shows are the most urgent and where our innovation and expertise can be game changers.
Tackle Climate Change
Global temperatures have sharply risen over the last century, and it is clear that swift, bold action is required to avoid the increasingly severe impacts of climate change.
Investing in Green Technology
We are looking for Investors who are considering taking the plunge into green technology. Green technology investing, also referred to as clean technology investing, typically involves the selection of investments in companies with sustainable and environmentally friendly practices and products/services. While some clean technologies offer improvements that increase resource productivity and efficiency, others decrease environmental impact.
Funding for Universities
Funds will be collected for the Italian University of Padua and directed toward environmental projects that directly support the university’s commitment to reduce its greenhouse gas. Established in 1222, the University of Padova is one of Europe’s oldest and most prestigious seats of learning. The university was renowned for its research, particularly in the areas of medicine, astronomy, technology and law.
