IKAR Holdings, a London-based, multi-tired entrepreneurial group of companies, and Rome-based Tota Pulchra Association, announced today that they have established together “IKAR Tota Pulchra Impact Holding” in London.
At the heart of IKAR Tota Pulchra Impact Holding lies a groundbreaking partnership between two mission-driven organizations: IKAR Holdings, London, and Tota Pulchra Association, Rome.
The vision of both partners is to reimagine business as a force for sustainable, transformative impact, inspiring change that benefits all of humanity.
With a focus on diverse sectors, from education, health, and hospitality to fintech, sports, and technology, the new holding will be building a platform where innovation serves people and prosperity is shared. Every project, every initiative, and every investment the partners will execute will be deeply rooted in their mutual purpose: to create a lasting, positive impact for people everywhere, especially for those who have been marginalized or are facing significant challenges in their daily lives.
IKAR Holdings represents a new kind of entrepreneurial organization-one that values humanity as its most important asset. As the world’s first “Humicorn,” IKAR was built with the belief that human capital is the core of every successful organization. The multi-sectoral approach spans several continents, with a strategic focus on markets across Europe, MENA, GCC, India, Southeast Asia, and South and Central America. IKAR Holdings isn’t just focused on profitability; the group is dedicated to fostering a global movement of responsible, inclusive growth, where human potential is maximized, and social responsibility is paramount.
Tota Pulchra is an NGO grounded in the values of Catholic faith, operating under Italian and EU frameworks to uplift and empower individuals worldwide. Inspired by Catholic values-dignity, solidarity, compassion, justice, and stewardship-Tota Pulchra is committed to enhancing quality of life and fostering well-being for communities in need. This foundation of ethical principles fuels the partners dedication to human-centered progress, guiding them as they work to create substantial, positive change across the globe.
Mario Diel, Founder and Group Chairman of IKAR Holdings stated: “I could not be more excited about the new partnership with Tota Pulchra. When I founded IKAR Holdings, my aim was to create a game changer in the business world, where the human capital is recognized as the most important asset of any company. As Tota Pulchra is inspired by the values of the Catholic Church, I could not imagine to find a better partner who shares the same values and is dedicating all its actions for the betterment of human being”!
“I dedicated my whole life to the values of the Catholic Church, which I executed in various roles and most of my time within the Vatican. As the founder of Tota Pulchra I am thrilled to enter into a partnership with IKAR Holdings, as I believe that the complementary assets of both our organizations will create sustainable and impact driven results for many humans around the globe. It may even for the first time that a business group like IKAR and a organization based on catholic faith and values have created a mutual holding in the international business environment”, said Monsignor Jean-Marie Gervais, President Tota Pulchra, Rome.
