Our engagement
Phitrust has been an innovative precursor in financing social enterprises. What seemed like a crazy bet is now a reality, with the development of many projects responding to the growing social challenges of our society. Discovering the notion of patient capital, so antithetical to our current world, Phitrust learned that time allowed social enterprises to adapt their structure, to find the right compromises to respond to social issues while seeking profitability, the only way to sustain their projects. Coaching entrepreneurs is a very important aspect of Phitrust’s approach, which contributes to the structuring and growth of companies to increase their social impact, while respecting the necessary economic equilibrium.
