      Foundation

      The Med-Or Foundation was created by leading aerospace, security and defence company Leonardo in the spring of 2021. The Foundation seeks to promote cultural initiatives, research, and education in science, with the goal of strengthening links, exchanges, and international relations between Italy and countries in the Med-Or area, which spans the Mediterranean, the Sahel, the Horn of Africa, the Red Sea, as well as the Near and Far East and South America. Effective January 1, 2025, following a statutory amendment, it became Med-Or Italian Foundation, with Assolavoro, B.F. Enel, Eni, Ferrovie dello Stato, Fincantieri, Poste Italiane, and Snam joining as new ordinary members and Cassa Depositi e Prestiti, Edison, MBDA Italia, Terna and TIM joining as adherent members.
