Our Residents
The Bellagio Center Network spans six decades and includes more than 4,000 alumni, reflecting our longstanding commitment to support groundbreaking people and ideas that improve well-being and make opportunity universal and sustainable.
In 2023, we welcomed 103 residents to the Bellagio Center. Coming from all over the world and representing a wide cross-section of expertise, these residents are some of the most ambitious, innovative, and committed leaders of our time.
They are scientists and social scientists, making discoveries at the cutting edge of their fields. They are policymakers and nonprofit leaders, re-imagining our institutions to address our present and future challenges. They are practitioners in health, food, finance, climate, and technology, advancing solutions to support those most in need.
They are artists, musicians, filmmakers, writers, and cultural practitioners, pushing the boundaries of artistic expression to expose injustice and inspire action. And they are now part of Bellagio’s long legacy of connecting leaders who are committed to making opportunity universal and sustainable.
