Excellent 100 Scholarship

Since 2011, the public institution ISM Foundation has been running the ISM 100 Talents scholarship program, which aims to promote the integration of business and the academic world and to enable a larger number of young people who graduated with the highest marks to receive the highest quality education in Lithuania for free. When evaluating schoolchildren’s applications, not only grades and exam results are evaluated, but also young people’s motivation and social activities. A limited number of these scholarships are established each year.

By allocating funds for the implementation of this project, companies not only help to stop brain drain abroad, but also gain the opportunity to establish mutually beneficial relationships with students – by getting to know the students, they can invite them to do internships or to take up permanent positions after completing their studies.

  • in 2011 ISM 100 Talent Scholarships were launched
  • 427 extremely talented young people were given the opportunity to study for free
  • 15% of scholarships are established by patrons, the rest by ISM University
