Who is enabling us to organize the Lindau Meetings?

The Lindau Meetings of Nobel Laureates are made possible thanks to the support received from companies, associations and private patrons, on the one hand, and from national and state ministries, the International Lake Constance Conference and the European Commission on the other. The Council and the Foundation would therefore like to thank all those who have contributed in so many different ways to the success of the Lindau Dialogue.

International companies, selected foundations, associations and private patrons assure the material basis for the Lindau Meetings by making donations to the assets of the Foundation Lindau Nobelprizewinners Meetings at Lake Constance. Interest earned on the endowment, plus additional annual contributions by benefactors (see below), cover the budget of the Lindau Meetings. (See list here.)

The financial support of benefactors makes a decisive contribution towards ensuring that the selection process is devoted solely to the criteria of scientific excellence. Donations in kind play an important role in raising the professional level of the Meetings. Thus transport services, from air travel to the local car service, the technical infrastructure, the courier services, are all provided by world-renowned companies. (See list here.)

The success of the Lindau Meetings can also be attributed not least to the commitment shown by the Nobel Laureates, members of the Council and the Board of the Foundation during the preparation, realisation and evaluation of the meetings. They all give their support on a pro bono basis.
