Longview Philanthropy (operating under the “Longview” umbrella) is a philanthropic advising and grantmaking organization focused on reducing global catastrophic risks from emerging technologies—especially advanced artificial intelligence, nuclear weapons policy, and biosecurity-related threats. Longview’s core work combines expert-led grant recommendations for major donors with discretionary and regranting vehicles that fund research, policy, and field-building activities aimed at improving preparedness for transformative AI and reducing other extreme risks.
The organization describes a strategy built around expert grantmakers, due diligence, and fund vehicles such as the Frontier AI Fund, Digital Minds Fund, Emerging Challenges Fund, and a Nuclear Weapons Policy Fund. It also emphasizes philanthropic “power” as a structural complement to areas where it argues governments and militaries face gaps in funding or risk-reduction implementation capacity.
