Skoll has created the Skoll Foundation, a grant-making organization that gives away nearly $45 million a year in support of social entrepreneurs tackling pressing global concerns; the Skoll World Forum, a yearly convention of 800 of the brightest lights in academia, finance, business and non-profits to discuss matters of world import; and the Skoll Global Threats Fund, a $115 million fund which aims, ambitiously, to safeguard humanity from global threats -- among them, pandemics, water scarcity, nuclear proliferation and Middle East conflict.
