Profile - PIRON Global Development

We are an agency for project management, fundraising, consulting and communication services based in the German UN city of Bonn. Our core competence and specialization traditionally lies in the field of international development cooperation. However, our client portfolio and range of services has expanded considerably in recent years. As a creative solution provider, we are often commissioned with innovations that do not fit into any existing box. We also like to try out new things ourselves...

What drives and inspires us is summarized in one word: excellence. On behalf of our customers we are privileged to turn good to great every day. This can be the conception and implementation of a new (development) project, the further development of a client's external online and offline communication or the development of innovative measures for fundraising and capital procurement.

We see ourselves with a special focus as a premium service provider for Christian development organisations. Organizations with a church, community and/or missionary profile, which are active in development cooperation, humanitarian emergency aid as well as development education and advocacy work, face special challenges but also opportunities to shape the future. Frequently, specifically adapted strategies of internal organisational development and external action in the areas of fundraising, communication and project work are required, which we develop and implement together with our clients.

We continuously improve our corporate sustainability. Internally, we pay attention to business, social and ecological health and live these principles in our commissioned work. Just a few examples from the area of environmental sustainability: we order our office supplies from the sustainable mail order company Memo, we use the sustainable search engine Ecosia for our web research, we offset our business air travel via CompensAid and at Christmas we give tree vouchers from Plant for the Planet to our customers, partners and friends.

We are often asked where our name "PIRON" comes from, what it means or what it stands for. Basically, it can be said: PIRON is a proper name, not an abbreviation or an artificial word. Where this proper name comes from is a long story that is best shared in a personal conversation. But in brief: PIRON is the name of a place in South Africa where the vision and basic idea for our work as an agency was born more than ten years ago. Accordingly, this name stands for our foundation and our origins.
