Funding

GIMEMA Foundation is an academic, independent, non-profit organization under Italian law, with no direct government subsidy.  

Our revenue comes from grants from institutional, corporate, and private donors and fees charged for studies conducted with partners or services to the haemato-oncology community that enables us to fulfil our mission and vision. 

Clinical studies evaluating new drugs for potential registration, or testing therapeutic agents, are conducted also with the contributions from commercial organizations.  

This funding is subject to GIMEMA strict principles of independence.
