Greetings to all our collaborators, allies, and those who support our mission!
We are thrilled to celebrate our first year of life at the IOV Foundation, a non-profit organization that began taking its first steps in April 2023, with a bold and transformative mission: to multiply the impact of organizations and individuals seeking positive change in the world.
At the IOV Foundation, we dared to challenge the status quo by exploring new ways to address social issues, creating a multi-platform organization that aims to bridge the gap between impact organizations and their communities through trust-building technologies that reinforce process transparency, provide traceability in fund usage, improve governmental efficiency, and create new ways to make a significant impact.
We deeply appreciate the team that makes up the IOV Foundation and the support of our valuable allied organizations, such as the Development Bank of Latin America and the Caribbean (CAF), Yunus & Youth, Globant and GBM. Together, we are co-creating digital trust solutions and systems that will be culturally relevant and sustainable in the long term.
Why do we focus on trust?
We focus on trust because it is the fundamental element that enables societies to progress and establish healthy human connections. In a world where distrust and uncertainty are hindering economic development and the sustainability of our society, we believe that’s where we need to focus. Trust is the catalyst that unleashes human potential and propels us forward towards a better tomorrow for all. Moreover, the increasingly digitalized world presents complex technical challenges that require interdisciplinary approaches and multiple perspectives.
How are we doing it?
- We employ a powerful tool that leverages cutting-edge technologies such as blockchain and cryptography to create secure and transparent environments.
- It’s important to highlight that we are an independent organization and are willing to adopt any blockchain and open technology that enhances trust-building among individuals and organizations.
- We align with the culture of collaboration and transparency in open source in every initiative we promote, ensuring a multi-platform perspective in each of our interventions to guarantee the highest possible security and technical rigor.
Our role is clear: we are bridge builders towards a brighter tomorrow. We commit to addressing the most pressing challenges of our time, from the financial empowerment of the most disadvantaged to environmental protection.
At every step of our journey, an unwavering purpose guides us: to empower organizations and individuals for a world where every human being has the opportunity to reach their full potential.
We know that together we can make a difference and leave a legacy that will endure for generations.
