The President’s Circle

In 2006 a group of folks sharing a personal bond with the University of Bremen, including several alumni, got together to see how they could contribute towards the University’s well-being. Its members decided to pool their expertise and take on the task of providing the University with professional advice on strategy and communication from a perspective outside the University’s walls and to act as ambassadors in the public sphere. One of their objectives is to widen the circle of sponsors and partners of the University of Bremen. The President's Circle also engages in targeted support for selected projects.

The circle convenes twice a year for a two-day meeting on the campus– in the spring and autumn. The last meeting took place on 15th and 16th March 2012.

The President's Circle has so far given its support for the following projects:

• University name in lights
• 4 scholarships for the North German Excellence Network
• The brochure "Vertrauen in Forschung" (Trust in research) on the discussion surrounding cognition research
• Foundation

Participation in the President's Circle is by invitation only.
