DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE
FaithInvest was founded as a result of a landmark meeting of faith investors, investment specialists, the United Nations and NGOs in Zug, Switzerland in October 2017. Following the Zug meeting, a development committee, made up of faith-based members and investment professionals, was formed to shape FaithInvest. We became a legal entity in spring 2019 and achieved charitable status in December 2019.
