Santander has been recognized as one of the 50 companies making a positive impact in the world by being included in Fortune Magazine’s ‘Change the World’ list for the third year in a row. The list acknowledges companies that have a positive social impact through activities that are part of their core business strategy.
Santander has been included in the list because of its support for education, entrepreneurship and employability through global initiatives like Santander Open Academy platform. In 2024 alone the bank invested €103.8 million and supported more than 2.2 million people and businesses. Over the past nearly 30 years, the bank has been a pioneering supporter of education, employability and entrepreneurship, standing out among the world's financial institutions. Santander has deployed over €2.4 billion to support these areas through partnerships with nearly 1,100 universities.
Education, entrepreneurship and employability are the foundations of sustainable growth. That’s why we’ve been one of the largest corporate supporters of education over the past three decades—deploying more than €2.4 billion to support these areas and helping close to 4 million people and businesses around the world. I am very proud of our teams for making this possible and grateful to Fortune for recognising their efforts.
Recently, Santander published the Tomorrow's Skills report, which reveals a new landscape in which developing skillsets will be crucial in the working environment. In this regard, the bank’s mission to help people and businesses prosper is realized through the Santander Open Academy platform, a global e-learning platform offering free access to world-class courses, expert-led content, and financial scholarship opportunities from top universities and institutions.
