We are grateful for the generosity of the funders that support Bridgespan. Grants from these organizations and individuals have been committed to our leadership work, to our knowledge work, and to discretionary funds earmarked for clients that might otherwise be unable to engage our services.

The Bridgespan-Bain & Company Partnership

Bridgespan and Bain & Company are separate, independent organizations with no legal affiliation; however, the close relationship between the two has been a key factor in Bridgespan’s history and development. In addition to having incubated Bridgespan and committing more than $2 million in seed capital and other grants—plus essential infrastructure support—Bain generously offers Bridgespan employees access to its intellectual capital and thought leaders. In turn, Bridgespan hosts Bain consultants for six-month externships. We also are privileged to have Bain senior management team members serving on our Board of Trustees.
