The ENHANCE Fundraising Office is specifically charged with the responsibility of attracting and managing private support for ENHANCE, its people and its programmes.

The Fundraising officer, jointly with the members of the partners ‘fundraising committee, will, promote a positive public image of the Alliance, to foster positive relations with university partners’ alumni and attract donations to help support the Alliance and its activities.

The ENHANCE Alliance is an integral part of European society, enhancing co-creation with societal stakeholders and the engagement of students, researchers and staff.

As a science and technology Alliance serving society, ENHANCE follows the principle of the knowledge square and the quadruple helix, where academia, industry, policymaking and civil society are in the centre of our activities.

The engagement of our Associated Partners and donors in our activities contributes to our vision of empowering people to develop and use science and technology for the benefit of society.

ENHANCE develops a variety of activities in education,  research and entrepreneurship through collaboration with external

partners amongst public, private and non-governmental organisations.

Firstly, this collaboration can be formalised on the narrow spectrum first, with an agreement on a one-of-a-kind basis for a focused goal, a limited period and an individualised type of activity.

Second, on the broader side of collaboration, ENHANCE offers an Alliance Chair as an academic collaborative relationship between the parties, maximising the generation and dissemination of knowledge and the training of future professionals in areas of common interest.

If you are interested in developing activities with ENHANCE, please get in touch with the Fundraising officer at: fundraising.officer@enhanceuniversity.eu
