             Breaking new ground means bringing the unexpected to the table. Looking past normal.
             And coming up with new ideas that change the world. At Citi, we support people who use their
             imagination like the Garden Bridge Trust, a group that saw a tree-lined path where others saw a
             bridge. Their idea: a floating garden. It’s a project that gives visitors and residents a beautiful walk
             over the Thames from South Bank to Temple Station, and provides environmental, transport and
             economic benefits along the way.
             The idea’s so captivating we’re committing to it. With a history of helping urban projects go from
             blue sky to blueprint, we look forward to lending our banking and funding expertise to help the
             Garden Bridge Trust see their plan come to fruition.
             Because progress means more than what you do – it means how you do it.                                     Proud to support the Garden Bridge as Official Banking Partner.

             Citi helped Hungary’s Wigner Research Centre to manage
             supercollider data for ten thousand scientists in the search for
             the building blocks of the universe. Citi’s backing and financial
             support helped the Centre win a highly competitive bid to
             provide data management services.
             Now they are ensuring that thousands of scientists worldwide
             can access and share ideas and complex data generated
             by supercolliders with their powerful computer resources –
             Bringing the search for the Higgs boson and the mysteries of
             the universe closer than ever before. Excited about influencing
