According to Mario Baccini, the fund was founded 10 years ago to support culture, economy, and business. The main activities of the fund include the development of companies, job creation, the fight against hunger and poverty, protection of human values. Foedus implements and promotes international research, conducts large-scale analysis, cooperates with the governments of developed and developing countries.
