The foundation aims to promote associative economic practices within its sphere of influence by supporting research projects and accompanying companies and participation companies in their development. It will help them develop new forms of solidarity and balancing functions between capital providers and companies. This should involve developing forms of connection between entrepreneurial initiative and capital that, on the one hand, express the social commitment of company capital by releasing it from the inheritance and speculation stream, and on the other hand, express the social obligation of the invested participation capital. Capital freed from individual claims should become socially effective social capital. It can be a service and legal instrument for filling or shaping shareholder positions of various kinds, in order to remove company ownership from the speculation and inheritance stream while maintaining individual responsibility, especially in the context of company succession planning. In addition to its advisory activities, it can establish and manage participation companies in Switzerland and abroad through capital brokerage. It can also participate in companies in Switzerland and abroad.
