About the Wisdom Foundation

Wisdom Foundation Concept

The Wisdom Foundation is currently being established with a core mission to accelerate the philanthropic engagement of early stage companies (start-ups and scale-ups) that have products or services which can create social good, but no bandwidth in terms of time or resources to establish their own foundation or assimilated entities yet.

Through the Wisdom Foundation approach, we aim at reducing the cost of setting up a Swiss Foundation structure by 10x, slash the time to start operations by 10x and through our existing network increase its overall impact by 10x – therefore achieving a 1000x potential improvement when compared to creating a new Swiss foundation from scratch.

We also focus on providing a better structure in the shape of individual endowments to smaller nonprofits like Swiss associations and equivalent qualified foreign entities, which can make fundraising significantly easier – as well as facilitating access to large communities such as the United Nations and the World Economic Forum via multiple well established relationships.

The nonprofits participating in the pilot phase during the Wisdom Foundation setup are the following:
