A new way to achievechange at scale
We find, fund, and scale the most promising people and solutions to the world’s most pressing problems.
Philanthropy at the scale of today’s challenges
Humanity faces problems of collective action that neither markets nor governments will solve. We are a team of scientists, entrepreneurs, and philanthropists who believe philanthropy must rise to the occasion.
We spin up a flywheel of capital, talent, and ideas to create lasting change.
Ergo provides the world's most ambitious philanthropists with a new way of deploying capital impactfully at scale. We rigorously prioritize the problems where high-leverage philanthropy can have outsized impact while attracting world-class talent to solve those problems under a clear ‘theory of victory’.
Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever has.
Who we are
Our team comes from the highest levels in academia, business, and government. We have started companies, overseen large businesses, and advised on hundreds of millions of dollars in philanthropic grants. Our deep desire to leave behind a significantly better world for our children brought us to Ergo.
