Fondation BSB is a school-affiliated foundation that primarily supports Bourgogne School of Business students, especially those in financial need or facing precarious situations, while also backing academic excellence and applied research. It gives through student-focused programs that strengthen campus life and student-led initiatives, with a clear emphasis on projects led by BSB student associations in France or abroad. Its funding is distinctive for combining direct student support with small grants for civic, cultural, social, environmental, and entrepreneurial activity tied to the BSB community.
Small to modest grants, typically €500 to €6,000, awarded through recurring calls rather than open-ended applications. One program is offered annually, while the Incubateur bursaries are issued twice a year (April and December), suggesting a structured, calendar-based process focused on BSB students and student associations.
Monitor the foundation’s annual and semiannual calls closely: the 'Nos Assos ont du talent' fund is typically open once per year, while Incubateur bursaries recur in April and December. Applications appear limited to BSB students or BSB student associations, so proposals should clearly show affiliation with BSB, financial need or student impact, and a concrete plan for how the grant will benefit the student body or the wider public.
