Our mission is to drive measurable impact on access to innovative knowledge, youth entrepreneurship, and Lithuanian cultural preservation worldwide. The origin of the foundation traces its roots to 2008, a year in which Devbridge, a professional services firm, started its operations in Chicago. After opening offices in Kaunas and Vilnius, the team at Devbridge saw an opportunity to strengthen the skillset of university students by offering a highly competitive, free-to-attend academy (Sourcery Academy) that enabled participants to apply their skills to real world challenges for US clients. The program produced over 2,500 graduates over the course of last ten years.

The professional services company Devbridge was acquired by Cognizant in 2021. To continue their mission, the eight founders established the Devbridge Foundation in 2023 and donated $10 million as initial capital.

By enabling ambitious partners in Lithuania and abroad, we support joint initiatives whose impact we see in children’s future career success and the strengthening of Lithuania’s international visibility and reputation.
