Insaan Group is formed as a global philanthropic fund of
funds, focusing initially on Afghanistan and India, and
qualifies as a tax exempt, public charity (501 c 3) under US
law. Insaan's aim is to make philanthropy more effective by
applying sound investment principles to the field of global
philanthropy
https://insaangroup.org/
Insaan works with philanthropists on four
themes that it believes to be instrumental in
addressing human needs in developing
countries: Education Fund, Entrepreneurship
Development Fund, Orphan Fund and Culture
Fund
By connecting private wealth to innovative
ventures in developing countries, both
through funding charitable projects and
through variants of loan or equity, Insaan
increases the overall impact of philanthropic
giving.
Amelie Zegmout took the Executive MBA
(EMBA) in Dubai knowing it would open doors
to new career opportunities. Within months of
starting the programme in early 2015, she left
a business development role for a general
management one at Legrand, which develops
electrical and digital infrastructure for
buildings.
https://insaangroup.org/
Insaan believes that the nature of ventures
‘invested' in for maximizing ‘philanthropic return
on investment' should go beyond traditional
charities to include nascent private companies,
public entities and indigenous non profits - as
often seeds of innovation, sustainability and
macro-level impact lie across this organizational
spectrum.
