Mission

Preservation and promotion of ideal and cultural values, and generally charitable work, both in Switzerland and abroad; full description of purpose as per the statutes.

The Laudes Foundation is an international grant-making foundation committed to the transition to a green, just, and inclusive economy. Its goal is to address the major challenges of our time—climate change, biodiversity loss, and social inequality—through transformations in business and industry.

The Laudes Foundation not only awards grants but also brings together businesses, policymakers, researchers, and civil society. It supports innovation, policy frameworks, research, industry standards, and collaborations to transform entire systems.

The foundation was established in 2020 by the Brenninkmeijer family of entrepreneurs and builds on the experience of the former C&A Foundation. It sees itself as an independent philanthropic organization with a global focus.
