What is “Mecenat Award”? The “Mecenat Award” was established in 1991 (renamed to “Mecenat Award” in 2004) with the aim of enhancing corporate patronage and increasing interest from society. Since then, we have selected philanthropy (creating a richer and better society through the promotion of arts and culture) activities that were carried out in the previous year, and by 2023, we have awarded 247 outstanding philanthropic activities across the country. ● “Mecenat Award” website :
