Europe
On October 28th 2020, in the midst of the Covid-19 Pandemic, the European headquarters of DRK Foundation was opened in The Hague, Netherlands.
When we set out to find the right place to anchor DRK’s work in Europe, we were in search of a host city and financial institution that shared our values and would partner with us to accelerate DRK Foundation’s mission of finding, funding, and supporting impact-driven social enterprises making the world a better place for those most vulnerable.
The Netherlands boasts one of the best business environments for social entrepreneurs, ranking the seventh best place to do business worldwide, according to the Thomson Reuters Foundation. We established our European headquarters in The Hague, the International City of Peace and Justice, owing to the city’s aligned mission. Under the banner of ImpactCity, The Hague is committed to fostering a better, more sustainable and equitable world through entrepreneurship. ImpactCity is quickly becoming the leading impact ecosystem in Europe.
