In 2024, the Jenny and Antti Wihuri Foundation supported science, art, and social activities with €15.4 million. This total amount includes not only general grant applications but also co-funding for multi-year projects and funding for the foundation’s own activities, such as art acquisitions, residencies, and the operations of the Wihuri Research Institute, which conducts biomedical research.
The foundation sometimes commits to funding long-term research projects over several years, distributing the support in multiple installments. You can find a list of currently funded multi-year projects here.
