Mod­ern Phil­an­thropy. Strate­gic by Design.

Giv­ing some­thing back to soci­ety – a motive that inspires more and more people. 

And that’s a good thing, because soci­ety needs phil­an­thropic commitment! 

PHINEO’s phil­an­thropy con­sult­ing sup­ports wealthy indi­vid­u­als and fam­i­lies in build­ing tar­get­ed and sus­tain­able engage­ment for the com­mon good.

What sets us apart: 15 years of in-depth expe­ri­ence with suc­cess­ful projects, tried-and-test­ed strate­gies, flex­i­bil­i­ty, dis­cre­tion, a broad net­work, and hands-on approach­es that help phil­an­thropists imple­ment impact­ful and sus­tain­able projects accord­ing to their indi­vid­ual needs. 

Our Con­sult­ing Ser­vices Cov­er Five Key Areas:

1. GET­TING START­ED – Strat­e­gy Development
2. LEARN­ING – Capac­i­ty Building
3. EVAL­U­AT­ING – Impact Assessment
4. DONAT­ING – Fund­ing Initiatives
5. FOUND­ING – Start-Up Support

Our Approach to Phil­an­thropy Consulting 

PHI­NEO accom­pa­nies phil­an­thropists in every phase of their engage­ment – from ini­tial strate­gic align­ment to oper­a­tional imple­men­ta­tion and long-term fund­ing. This holis­tic approach is what sets us apart from oth­er con­sult­ing providers. 

We also offer needs-based and ad hoc sup­port. To this end, we have devel­oped a mod­u­lar con­sult­ing con­cept that can be flex­i­bly adapt­ed to your goals. 

What Sets Us Apart

• Exper­tise & Expe­ri­ence: Our con­sult­ing is backed by over 2,000 impact assess­ments and 15 years of expe­ri­ence work­ing with non­prof­it orga­ni­za­tions, com­pa­nies, researchers, and pub­lic insti­tu­tions. We under­stand the dif­fer­ent log­ics that dri­ve var­i­ous actors – and where the real levers for impact lie. 
• Hands-on Meth­ods & Proven Strate­gies: We are well-versed in effec­tive approach­es to sup­port­ing fun­ders and phil­an­thropic ini­tia­tives. One exam­ple is Susanne Klatten’s SKala Ini­tia­tive, through which we helped her fam­i­ly office allo­cate €100 mil­lion for max­i­mum impact. We are cur­rent­ly sup­port­ing the Ini­tia­tive Mobil­ität­skul­tur, fund­ed by the CHRYSANTL Foun­da­tion.
• Strong Net­work & Cross-Sec­tor Col­lab­o­ra­tion: Upon request, we con­nect phil­an­thropists with rel­e­vant actors from civ­il soci­ety, acad­e­mia, and politics. 
• Tai­lored Sup­port & Full Dis­cre­tion: Whether you want to make your engage­ment vis­i­ble or pre­fer to stay anony­mous – we ensure your pref­er­ences are respected. 
• Non-Prof­it & Inde­pen­dent: PHI­NEO is a non-prof­it orga­ni­za­tion. That means our only goal is to strength­en your social engage­ment – no strings attached. 
• Bridg­ing Phil­an­thropy & NPOs: We under­stand both the needs and work­ing meth­ods of non­prof­its as well as the expec­ta­tions of phil­an­thropists. This dual per­spec­tive is one of our core strengths – and a key dif­fer­ence from oth­er con­sult­ing services.
