About Ernesto Bertarelli '89
Ernesto Bertarelli, a Swiss entrepreneur active in the field of business, finance, sports, and philanthropy who graduated from Babson College in 1989, studied business throughout his lifetime, realizing much later in his career how important the actual foundation of family values and beliefs was to his family’s success. He is also the recipient of the prestigious Babson-Camus Global Family Entrepreneurship Award, an annual award to recognize highly distinguished and uniquely impactful business families that have created significant economic and social value across generations while exemplifying Babson College values.
