About us

Who are we?

Fundación General CSIC (FGCSIC) is a private non-profit organisation created in 2008 by a joint institutional initiative of the Spanish National Research Council (Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas - CSIC) and its founding patrons. Its goal is to promote public-private collaboration in the environment of scientific research, innovation and knowledge enhancement.

This collaboration can be developed within the framework of initiatives that promote scientific knowledge and research talent, innovation and investment, through various instruments that FGCSIC has developed to invest in CSIC's broad portfolio of scientific and technological capabilities.
