Out of the total of almost SEK 2.6 billion, the three largest foundations – Knut and Alice Wallenberg Foundation, Marianne and Marcus Wallenberg Foundation and Marcus and Amalia Wallenberg Foundation – awarded research funding of SEK 2.5 billion.
“The main purpose of the Foundations is to support research that provides new knowledge about the world we live in. It is satisfying that in 2022 the Foundations have been able to grant Swedish research the largest total amount to date. This is possible thanks to the dividends the Foundations receive through the ownership of the owner company FAM and our investment in Investor AB,” says Peter Wallenberg Jr, Chair of Knut and Alice Wallenberg Foundation.
