Patient capital, serving the common good


The Foundation is primarily endowed by companies of the M. Corporation group, which pass on to it a share of their profits within the framework of their non-profit corporate purpose.

VC Holdings M. SA


VC Holdings M. SA has committed, within the framework of its partly non-profit corporate purpose — made possible by the 2019 amendment to the Belgian Companies Code —, to make 30 % of its net profits available to the Foundation. It today holds the family's stake in the Next Day group and is part of the M. Corporation group.

Next Day

Next Day, originally created in 2016 by Vittorio Mettewie, is dedicated to developing real-estate projects with very high environmental value, notably in the “Affordable & Intermediate Housing” segment. The group thus fully contributes to the essential energy transition and to the creation of energy-efficient housing at an accessible rent and/or price.

VC Fund M. SA

formerly Next Day Fund


VC Fund M. SA (formerly Next Day Fund), created in 2020 and part of the M. Corporation group, pursues a very long-term holding strategy for green real-estate assets, in Belgium and across Europe, in various segments — offices, housing and seasonal-rental properties. In this respect, it has committed, within the framework of its partly non-profit corporate purpose, to make 15 % of its net profits available to the Foundation.

*The commitment by the contributing companies to make part of their net profits available to the Foundation is made possible by the amendment to the Belgian Code of Companies and Associations that came into force in 2019, which notably allows the pursuit of a non-profit purpose.
