India Philanthropy Initiative

India Philanthropy Initiative

The India Philanthropy Initiative (IPI) is an informal effort driven by leading Indian philanthropists to promote and enable thoughtful, informed and increased philanthropy by their peers – the wealthy in India – through conversations, discussions, visits and knowledge creation. The effort started in 2012, and since then, several large and small group discussions have been hosted across Mumbai, Delhi, Chennai and Bangalore for philanthropists and immediate family.

In 2019, India Philanthropy Initiative partnered with Pune based VikasAnvesh Foundation to work on its first study on 'Big Philanthropy in India: Perils and Opportunities'. The final report of this study was launched on December 8, 2020.
