The Foundation looks for ambitious, long-term projects that are clearly defined and have a realistic budget. Scientific and social projects are also selected based on the extent to which they will serve the public good.
The Foundation's board is made up of between five and nine members appointed by BCV and includes representatives from Vaud's cultural, scientific and social circles. It is the board members who choose the candidates each year.
