The Mannat ADF

A People.

Our Journey

Founded in 2017, Mannat quickly established itself as a beacon of hope and virtue. For years, we dedicated ourselves to a singular vision of excellence, building a legacy that stood for belonging and community.

A New Chapter

In March 2021, a new chapter began. Mannat was acquired by ADF for an all cash deal, a move that united our legacy with a new, powerful vision for the future. This acquisition was not an end, but a beginning of our evolution, empowering the next generation of world leaders.

Leadership & Governance

A mission-locked partnership with ADF

Mannat operates under a capped for profit structure: investor returns are contractually limited so that surplus value is reinvested into our programmes and people. In 2021, ADF became our sole outside shareholder through an all-cash growth investment.

Why does that matter? ADF brings a global network, and the capital that lets The Mannat scale faster. This helps expand our community hubs and our frontier research—while our profit cap ensures those projects stay mission-first. The Chief Executive Officer is appointed by the board and oversees our daily operations.
