Built to keep one promise
A DIFC-registered philanthropic foundation with a single purpose — and the structure to pursue it for generations.
A DIFC-registered philanthropic foundation with a single purpose — and the structure to pursue it for generations.
The Natro Promise Foundation exists because talent is distributed evenly across the world, but opportunity is not. Georgia produces mathematicians, engineers, and scientists whose ability rivals any in the world — and every year, some of them are admitted to the finest graduate programmes on earth, only to be stopped by the cost.
Talent is not rare. Access is. Georgia has given the world some of the brightest engineering and scientific minds — yet this era has pushed Georgian students further from the world’s leading centres of learning, tearing down bridges to world-class higher education instead of building new ones. That is precisely why this foundation exists: to restore the financial means for Georgia’s most talented to reach the laboratories and lecture halls of the world’s leading institutions. NPF is that bridge.
The foundation removes the barrier. We fund tuition, accommodation, and living expenses for exceptional Georgian scholars pursuing Master’s degrees — and Master’s degrees only — in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics at internationally recognised universities.
The future is unpredictable. The exponential advance of technology is challenging every assumption — including the very concept of education itself. No one can say with certainty which jobs, industries or institutions will exist in twenty years. Science, technology, engineering and mathematics do what no other education can: they equip future leaders with the tools and the mindset to adapt to fundamental change — and to put it to use.
The foundation is deliberately built on the harmony of two standards of excellence. The first is institutional: the Dubai International Financial Centre, one of the world’s most respected and trusted jurisdictions, whose regulatory and governance framework holds the foundation to the same standard as the global institutions headquartered beside it. The second is personal: the organisational vision of David Natroshvili — the precision, transparency, and conviction with which he built a global technology company, applied to philanthropy.
A scholar who signs an agreement with NPF is not relying on goodwill. They are protected by one of the strongest legal frameworks in the world, and backed by a founder who treats every commitment as a matter of engineering.
The foundation’s Certificate of Registration — Registered Number 13478, issued by the DIFC Registrar of Companies on 22 May 2026.
NPF was registered as a philanthropic foundation in the Dubai International Financial Centre in May 2026, under the DIFC Foundations Law — a structure chosen deliberately. A foundation is permanent. It has by-laws, a board, and a governance framework that outlives any individual. Its values are merit, transparency, and legacy. The promise we make to a scholar is backed by an institution, not a gesture.
Every application is reviewed against published criteria, assessed in depth, and decided by a vote of the foundation’s board. No single person awards a scholarship. The process is demanding because the promise is serious.
Scholars report on their academic progress each term and remain in good standing throughout their programme. Beyond that, we ask only what the foundation’s name implies: that one day, in whatever form their life makes possible, they give their own promise forward.
