Fediverse Foundation
The Fediverse Foundation is a non-commercial club ("Verein") based in Vienna, Austria, but operating worldwide, with the goal to promote and partially fund the Fediverse.
It hosts a few Fediverse instances on a server in Vienna that runs on 100% green energy, collects donations and tries to get funding.
The Fediverse Foundation will also create promotional material for the Fediverse and appear at fares and other events.
