The Harvard Magazine 36

Sponsorship Opportunities

Inaugural Year | Spring 2027

The Harvard Magazine 36 is a new recognition honoring 36 Harvard-affiliated individuals whose recent work reflects excellence, leadership, and meaningful impact across six areas: 

• Government, Law, and Policy
• Medicine, Science, and Technology
• Arts, Media, and Culture
• Business, Finance, ad Philanthropy
• Sports, Health, and Wellness
