Partners Launch Sweden's Biggest Business Accelerator!


What is this about?

Impact Invest Scandinavia, partner or Impact Hub, is running Sweden's largest accelerator and investment readiness program for foreign born entrepreneurs. The aim is to support a faster integration process for refugees and non-EU migrants. Companies led by people with a foreign background tend to employ other migrants to a higher degree than native companies. As an intermediary of venture finance, Impact Invest strives to contribute to more equal access to more equal access to funding and venture capital for startups - in a market lacking today in diversity.


When?

The accelerator program will last for months. From September 2017, support will be offered to entrepreneurs located in Västmanland, Östergötland and Greater Stockholm in addition to southern Sweden.


A shared vision

Impact Hub, as a global community, is the perfect partner for this accelerator program. Our values of diversity, inclusiveness, and connection are the same ones this program is founded on. This is the initiative that allows people to connect, inspire each other and create cooperation.


"Here we believe that every single individual can have an impact to make the world a better place." But if we all come together with our entrepreneurial actions and inspire, connect and enable each other, we can multiply our individual impacts. "

- Jesper Kjellerås, Founder & Managing Director of Impact Hub Stockholm
