Why we exist
While new technologies offer great opportunities for positive change, they also involve risks of potential negative impact and unforeseen events. Since the past century, technologies have become more powerful than ever and are being developed at an unprecedented speed, also scaling up the impact of potential negative consequences.
These risks are not exogenous. However, in order to prevent misuse, accidents and undesired structural changes, active management by a diverse set of stakeholders is inevitable.
What we do
The Global Technology Risk Foundation is a non profit organization registered in Berlin, Germany. The goal of the foundation is to contribute to the mitigation of global risks from powerful technologies.
The foundation is funding research on risk and mitigation strategies, connecting relevant stakeholders as well as to promoting the responsible development of powerful technologies and active risk management.
We fund and support exceptional people with strong ideas in AI safety. If you are seeking funding or interested in collaborating, please contact grants@gtr-foundation.org.

GTR Foundation is part of a Single Family Office with a long standing presence in the digital and technology sector.
