The project

Here at the UMAS Foundation we are deeply passionate about music, art and science.

In light of humanity's remarkable new milestones in space tourism and the upcoming missions to Mars, we have decided to invest a portion of our capital in SpaceX and Virgin Galactic. This investment is both a contribution to these historic achievements and a strategic move to further our philanthropic mission.

Our commitment to social impact remains our top priority: all income generated from these shares is fully reinvested into music development projects in underdeveloped regions — such as our partnership with Casa da Música Benguela in Angola and our initiatives in Santa Maria di Licodia, Sicily, where we established the Trinity College London programme.

We firmly believe that music, art and science should be accessible to everyone. In Santa Maria, while the typical annual tuition for such programmes is between £15,000 and £18,000, we have reduced the fee to just €1,600, making a world-class education attainable for our students.

This is our mission, and these are our goals. If you share our vision, we invite you to join us.
