Our approach
We are a nonprofit philanthropic foundation working on building a deep and connected math talent ecosystem. Through investments in and coordinated management of nonprofit and for-profit organizations, we are assembling a portfolio of organizations that act as a cohesive math talent system. A cohesive math talent system is a system that effectively identifies and nurtures math talent wherever it surfaces.
Our work is primarily focused on identifying and growing strategic organizations critical to building a robust math talent system. We make big bets on these strategic portfolio partners, both in terms of resource and time commitment.
