The Biozientziak Gipuzkoa Fundazioa Foundation is a joint initiative of the Regional Government of Gipuzkoa and Kutxa, created at the end of 2011. It was decided to relaunch it to act as a “development and dynamism” factor in this field in the region.

Last year, sponsorship was renewed, bylaws were re-defined to adapt them to the current context, and a budget allowance of half a million euros was allocated. This allowance was increased to one million for 2017, provided in equal shares by the two institutions that hold the foundation.

Most of the budget is assigned to supporting biomedical start-ups and entrepreneurs to develop business projects that create new dynamism in the field.
