Introduction

FFGS translates its activities into specific results through (i) research partnerships, and (ii) project initiatives.

With research partnerships, FFGS enables cooperation between different companies, universities, NGOs and government agencies - enabling these organisations to further their own objectives in key areas of sustainability.

FFGS' projects initiatives are longer-term engagements with which FFGS furthers specific areas according to its own objectives.

For all activities, FFGS adheres to its main areas of focus and approach. The foundation's main contributions are the generation of new ideas, the concept design and the linking of relevant partners. After initiating a project, we seek to establish second-stage cooperation and funding via business, government and university partners.
