Our Unique Story
Entrepreneurial Families for Innovative Philanthropy (ERFIP) is more than just a think tank; it is an innovative platform and an innovation lab for development challenges in frontier markets. Initiated in 2013 as project, and set up as a Swiss registered foundation in 2018, ERFIP is a unique platform that brings together thought and business leaders, philanthropic families and social innovators and disruptors from emerging market.
Amidst the sea of interventions in the development arena, globally, indigenous philanthropists are often notoriously absent from the scene or decision making. ERFIP was born to address this gap and build linkages between stakeholders of global south philanthropy and international actors.
