Geneva Red-Cross Ball participation and fundraising
The Geneva Red Cross ball is a yearly fundraising event that chooses a different cause each time. In 2020, the Red Cross ball raised 1M in favor of the Armenian Population in order to provide medical and education support. In 2021, the event raised nearly 1M in favor of gender equality and women’s right promotion. In each event, Bomare SA actively participated in inviting its most important clients to its table, participating in auction fundraising and generous humanitarian gifts.
The Lebanese Food Bank Foundation
The Lebanese Food Bank (LFB) Foundation (part of the Global Food Banking Network) focuses on collecting surplus food from restaurants, hotels and supermarkets, and on giving it to the local population without discrimination of race, religion or political orientation. Bomare SA gives regularly to the LFB in order to help those affected by the economic and social crisis impacting the Lebanese population.
Green Electricity production program
Bomare SA is part of the Green Electricity "Vitale Vert" Geneva eco friendly electricity production program. We happily pay a premium for our electricity needs during working hours in order to guarantee a cleaner and more sustainable environment.
On a private level, Bomare SA CEO has equipped his private home with an electrical solar panel system that generates clean electricity and is able to sell the extra capacity produced to the Geneva Electric company (SIG).

The McGill Innovation Fund
The McGill Innovation Fund (MIF) supports entrepreneurial activity at McGill University in Montreal, Canada, to advance a technology or a product towards real world impact. McGill researchers are well known for their expertise in cleantech, including alternative fuels, battery technology and advanced energy storage systems. Marc Boghossian, Bomare CEO and a McGill business graduate, is one of the Lighthouse Circle of founding donors to the MIF, specifically supporting cleantech projects.
Every year, a selection of the most promising projects are awarded a prestigious cash prize intended to accelerate their technology and either spin-off into a viable company, or to support the development of a licensable technology. But the MIF offers more than funding; projects also receive valuable business mentorship from the Office of Innovation and Partnerships and McGill graduates such as Mr. Boghossian. In turn, these projects are encouraged to invest back into the fund once they become successful businesses.
