Return to Society
ARCHIMED’s return to society is multifold, instigating changes in the healthcare industry, contributing to people’s pensions and savings, increasing positive impacts on global health outcomes, improving businesses’ ESG practices, and supporting vulnerable people’s needs through our charitable EURÊKA Foundation.
OUR FONDATION
The EURÊKA Foundation was established in 2014 with the ambition to provide funding and strategic support to projects that improve research and innovation on undertreated diseases and assist vulnerable people affected by health problems (mental and physical). ARCHIMED supports EURÊKA by committing 5% of the carried interest from all funds, financing charitable projects, medical research and innovation.

KEY INITIATIVES THROUGH OUR FOUNDATION
7

The Clubhouse
The Clubhouse model is a powerful tool in supporting those living with serious mental illness. The Foundation has maintained a focus on mental health recovery since its establishment and firmly believes in the lasting positive impact of the Clubhouse model.
The EURÊKA Foundation began its journey with the creation of Clubhouse Lyon and has since expanded its support to initiatives in seven countries where ARCHIMED is present. ARCHIMED’s team members volunteer their time to concentrate on long-term funding, advocacy, advice, and one-to-one coaching for Clubhouse members, aiding them in rejoining the workforce.
