Supporting the Santa Fe Institute provides a unique opportunity to impact the future. Our faculty, with more than 800 collaborating scientists, scholars, intellectuals, and artists, explores complex systems like economies, ecosystems, human development, innovation, the evolution of intelligence, the origin of life, and more in over 30 one-of-a-kind scientific meetings each year.

With a startup-level budget and the support of a community of like-minded thinkers, we achieve the world’s highest-risk, biggest-result complexity research: since 2010 there have been more than 63,000 citations of SFI published research, and our programs, like ACtioN, the Applied Complexity Network, Massive Open Online Courses, and our flagship Complex Systems Summer School have helped thousands of students, professionals, and partners use the approaches of complexity to achieve impact in business, academia, and society.

At SFI, your support enables the creative rigor and intellectual daring that produces insights possible nowhere else. And, because we leverage more than four additional dollars from federal grants, foundations, and strategic partners for every dollar supporting our science, your giving can go even further.
