HEC Montréal has received a $20M donation focused on supporting entrepreneurship, research, and mental health from the Lise and Giuseppe Racanelli Foundation. The donation will boost initiatives for entrepreneurs, particularly those in Pôle entRepreneuriat HEC Montréal programs; support the school’s research and knowledge-transfer system; and support the wellbeing of students and those training to become entrepreneurs. In honour of the donation, HEC Montréal will rename its Côte–Sainte–Catherine building the Lise-et-Giuseppe-Racanelli Building. “This rare act of generosity will allow us to amplify our mission to train responsible leaders and support cutting-edge research that contributes to the sustainable transformation of organizations and society,” said HEC Montréal Director General Federico Pasin.
