Your questions, answered

We are an organisation (“Stichting” in Dutch) registered to provide an innovative IT solution in the Philanthropy sector. We initiated a research project to gain a deeper understanding of the challenges and opportunities in the field of Philanthropy, and subsequently developed the idea of a dedicated platform to address the key issues identified. Our research center is a dedicated initiative that explores the vast landscape of philanthropy, identifies critical challenges, and devises innovative solutions.
