12 impact entrepreneurs join our accelerator to grow and increase impact

May 1, 2019 - News

To give entrepreneurs the best possibilities to succeed and to affect the society and environment in a positive way, we’re kicking off a new accelerator programme – Care of Business Impact. We’re running it with Impact Invest and are welcoming 12 innovative and inspiring entrepreneurs that are creating social impact.

The 12 chosen participants on our pilot programme, that’s running from May to October, come from different parts of Sweden and work with things like food waste and solar power, coffee, support for vulnerable children, and a travel app for the LGBT community.

Care of Business Impact

The accelerator is for entrepreneurs who have been running their businesses for a while but want to grow quicker, expand their market, increase their business skills, and to get investment ready.

The development of the programme has come from an increased interest in social innovation and how to use entrepreneurship to achieve the Sustainable Development Goal, and it’s been funded by Swedish innovation agency Vinnova.

The brilliant 12

We’re excited to follow and support the 12 entrepreneurs as part of Care of Business Impact over the next few months, and we’ll be sharing updates along the way – so stay posted on our various channels!
