Campagnes
In the context of the opening of the Maison Poincaré in 2023, the IHP Endowment Fund has launched several participative financing campaigns (crowdfuding). These campaigns, open to all, aim to promote the projects carried out by the Institut Henri Poincaré, particularly in the context of the diversification of its activities and its extension project. The objective is to mobilize a public different from the "users" of IHP in order to increase its notoriety and to involve in these projects, new publics not specialized in mathematics and sciences.
The campaigns are either of short duration (6 to 8 weeks) in order to raise funds for a specific project (restoration of mathematical models, realization of a documentary or an element of exhibition...) or an annual program taking place over a year or more which allows to support the structure as a whole.
For each crowdfunding campaign, a recognition program offers "rewards" in exchange for donations. An emotional bond is created with the contributors who enlarge the community federated by social networks.
This community is the foundation of the Cercle des Amis of IHP and The Maison Poincaré (Maison Poincaré's Friends Circle), which is currently being created.

The Endowment Fund in a few words...
It has the capacity to receive funds exclusively from the private sector from individuals or legal entities whose passions are in line with those of the Institut Henri Poincaré.
The Fund's Board of Directors was chaired by Cédric Villani from its inception until March 7, 2019, when Sylvie Benzoni took over as interim Chair. Vincent Lefieux, representing the Cercle des entreprises partenaires de l'IHP on the Board of Directors, was elected President on May 29, 2019.
Through the Endowment Fund, companies and individuals can support the projects carried out by IHP by making financial, in-kind or skill-based contributions.
The founding organizations of the Fund : CNRS, Sorbonne University (formerly UPMC), and three learned societies in mathematics - the Société Mathématique de France (SMF), the SMAI (Société des Mathématiques Appliquées et Industrielles), the SFdS (Société Française de Statistiques).
