The Jam Foundation is a private foundation established to guarantee access to higher music education with equal opportunities and social justice. Its objectives are to ensure inclusive, high-quality education, promote research and cultural dissemination, foster community development through art, support innovative projects by young people, and facilitate their professionalization.

Currently, the foundation carries out the following projects:

  • Jam Foundation Scholarships:
    A scholarship program for the Bachelor's Degree in Music Production (Sonology), aimed at talented young people who need financial support to access higher education.
  • Impuls Festival:
    The Impuls Festival is a platform created to give visibility and support to emerging musicians, especially in the genres of rock, urban music, and new musical trends.
    This festival allows students to share the results of their learning process and their artistic evolution with the public throughout their training. It constitutes a meeting place between young talent and the public, promoting contemporary music culture.
