Como defensores de la investigación aplicada, la formación y las iniciativas innovadoras de carácter social, CETT Fundación brinda apoyo a los estudiantes mediante becas, ayudas y premios de excelencia académica. También organizamos los Premios CETT Proyectos Emprendedores para fomentar la innovación y el emprendimiento. Además, colaboramos como coorganizadores en varios congresos, jornadas y actos de transferencia de conocimiento.
CETT Fundación tiene una participación mayoritaria en los activos del Campus CETT, que incluye el CETT-UB (School of Tourism, Hospitality and Gastronomy), el Hotel Universitario Alimara y la Residencia Universitaria Internacional Àgora (adscrita a la Universitat de Barcelona). Esto nos permite involucrarnos activamente en la vida universitaria y ofrecer una experiencia integral a los estudiantes.
Cada beneficio generado por la Fundación se reinvierte para conseguir los objetivos y mejorar las instalaciones y los equipamientos, garantizando así la viabilidad económica y el cumplimiento de los objetivos de desarrollo del Campus CETT.
