Fuel HBS’s digital transformation to enable innovation in research and outreach

Rapid technological change is sweeping our society, and leaders must be able to understand and leverage the digital landscape. Toward that end, HBS is harnessing the latest technology to educate students, conduct real-world research and share impactful insights with practitioners worldwide, and provide lifelong learning to alumni.

How You can Help

The easiest way for donors to ensure that the School can advance digital transformation is by giving to the HBS Fund. As our annual fund, the HBS Fund supports core priorities and new initiatives, and donors have the option to direct their gift specifically to digital innovation.

To learn about leadership giving opportunities to support digital innovation at HBS, including the work of the new Digital, Data, and Design Institute, please contact Ellen Harkavy, Managing Director of Development, at eharkavy@hbs.edu or 617.495.6883.

The HBS Fund Investors Society recognizes leadership annual donors.
