ABOUT THE THREESTONES FOUNDATION
The Threestones Foundation was established in November 2018 as a philanthropic enterprise, backed by Threestones Capital – a leading investment boutique and service provider for nursing home investments in Europe.
Over the years we have acquired expertise in, and a deep passion for, the nursing homes and healthcare sector. As a group, and as individuals, we are committed to applying this knowledge and enthusiasm beyond our commercial activities.
The Threestones Foundation is the concrete expression of this desire to invest more broadly in the elderly care sector in which we operate.
We aim to surround ourselves with partners that are highly renowned in the nursing homes and care sector in order to promote socio-medical research; as well as with industrial partners and social enterprises in order to foster genuine cooperation.
If you are interested in getting involved, we’d love to hear from you.
