The Antonio Borges Endowed Scholarship has been established in memory of Antonio Borges who died in 2013 after a brave battle against cancer. A highly-respected dean of INSEAD (1993 – 2000), MBA programme dean (1986 – 1990), talented economics professor and widely-regarded business leader, Antonio Borges was also a true international, with deep connections to his native Portugal. A visionary, he shaped INSEAD’s history by setting up the campus in Singapore and greatly enhancing INSEAD’s research agenda. The scholarship received its first major donation in January 2014 from a generous INSEAD alumnus who kindly offered to transfer the endowed fund that he had created at INSEAD in 2008 to the Antonio Borges Endowed Scholarship. Subsequently, the scholarship has received additional funding from Antonio’s family, friends, and colleagues as well as many INSEAD alumni.
The scholarship was established in 2023 thanks to the generous support of alumnus Bansi Nagji, MBA’93J . It is awarded to MBA candidates from around the world who demonstrate the need for financial assistance. Scholarships such as this help cultivate diversity in the INSEAD classroom – a hallmark of the school – by enabling a strong representation of different nationalities; gender; socio-economic backgrounds; as well as academic, personal and professional experiences. It is the donor’s hope that the recipients of this award will later on include INSEAD in their future philanthropic giving as on-going support from alumni and friends is vital to the school’s continued success.

On the occasion of its 50th anniversary in 2010, a group of grateful alumni launched an appeal to create this endowed scholarship fund at INSEAD. The Alumni Association is the founder and some fifty individual contributors and National Alumni Associations became Co-Founders by making contributions of a minimum of 50,000 euros each. Several scholarships will be awarded in each class to meritorious candidates whose background, work experience, achievements and personal profile, contribute to the breadth and depth of ‘diversity’ at the school. Preference will be given to candidates requiring financial assistance. The fund remains open to receive further donations in the future and recipients of the scholarship will be encouraged to make their contribution later in their lives.
