Supporting tomorrow's social innovations for employment on their path to scale
About us
Established more than fifteen years ago, we champion a vision of a sustainable and inclusive society where everyone has the opportunity to thrive through employment. It endorses those who propose innovative approaches to address employment-related challenges. We concentrate on 4 areas: skills, work accessibility, work conditions, and entrepreneurs and employers. Through its main program, the DPF Award, the DP Foundation selects and finances the most ambitious systemic social innovations for sustainable employment across Europe. Annually, a winning organization receives a donation of one million euros and tailored support for five years. With its Lab, the DP Foundation aims to develop innovative solutions to employment issues in Belgium, through research, experimentation, collaboration, and funding of civil society players.

𝐒𝐨𝐥𝐢𝐝𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐃𝐚𝐲𝐬: 𝐌𝐚𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚 𝐝𝐢𝐟𝐟𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐭𝐨𝐠𝐞𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫✨ For over a decade, Degroof Petercam has been organizing Solidarity days - an annual tradition that brings together the colleagues to give back to the community. 🎉 The Solidarity Days remind us of the importance of slowing down to give back, something we often overlook in our busy routines. This initiative is also such a powerful way to reconnect with what really matters - being present, contributing meaningfully and sharing authentic moments with our colleagues 👩👧👦! Have a look at our video below! 👇 #DegroofPetercamFoundation #DegroofPetercam #SolidarityDays

It is inspiring to see this wonderful initiative by Melinda French Gates. in breaking down barriers holding women back professionally, as well as promoting better work-life balance for managing childcare and careers. This vision totally aligns with the goal of the #DegroofPetercamFoundation’s Lab Program on Parenthood & Employment in Belgium, aimed at finding and supporting sustainable solutions to tackle this pressing global societal challenge. 🌍👩👧👦 Empowering women and supporting parents in the workforce is crucial for a thriving society. Let's continue to innovate collaboratively and create inclusive environments where everyone can succeed both at home and at work. 💪✨ #DegroofPetercamFoundation #DegroofPetercam #Employment #SocialInnovation
I’m excited to share that I’m committing $150 million to help dismantle the barriers that hold women back at work. New research from my team at Pivotal Ventures, which adds to the growing body of evidence on women's experiences at work, shows that a lack of caregiving support, toxic workplace cultures, bias, harassment, and even threats of violence are among the biggest challenges women are facing at work right now. It’s clear that the modern workplace simply wasn’t built with women in mind, and frankly, women are tired of being pushed into a broken system and asked to overcome arbitrary and unfair roadblocks to succeed. It's time for that to change. These funds, which are part of the $1 billion commitment I announced earlier this year, will be focused on three areas: 1) Seeding innovations to build healthy workplaces; 2) Informing public policy changes to modernize the workplace; and 3) Increasing women’s representation and advancement in AI and tech. It’s essential that women—and all workers—have the support they need at work so they can reach their fullest potential.
